(Paperback - 2009)
Children are perhaps Walt Disney World's biggest fans. On playgrounds and in classrooms, there's always excited talk about who went to Walt Disney World and what they did each day-or minute. It has become almost a rite of passage to visit America's most popular travel destination, and kids can be wonderful sources of information.
Every area and attraction of Walt Disney World is covered, with kids' honest reactions and impressions included. There is a whole chapter devoted to each of the theme parks: Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom. Another chapter describes the rest of Walt Disney World, including Blizzard Beach, Typhoon Lagoon, Fort Wilderness, Downtown Disney, and dining spots with kid appeal.
The book is updated annually, and the 2009 edition features lots of new tips and attraction reviews from young "Disney Experts" around the world. We'll tell kids how to catch "Wildcat fever" at the rollicking new show, "High School Musical 2-School's Out!" And we'll give young readers the inside scoop on the newest WDW attractions, including the thrilling Toy Story Mania!

September 27, 2009: We took our Grandsons (ages 6 & 3 1/2) and their mom & dad to WDW. Gave this book to my son when we got there. He found it invaluable when planning what attractions would be good for the boys. Our rough, tough, seemingly afraid of nothing little guy was terrified by loud noise and dark attractions. Mind you, this is the boy who turns the lights on for his scared older brother. The descriptions in this book saved our trip. After scaring the heck out of them on the first day, our son mapped out the attractions to see and ones to avoid using this book. Thank you, Birnbaum for saving 6 of our 7 days.

August 03, 2009: Very cute book. My three kids (7, 4 and 4) thoroughly enjoyed leafing through it and checking out the photos, however, the book came apart at the binder - it never made it to Disney World with us! It did, however, help to get our kids psyched for the trip. That alone made the investment a worthy one.
