Disney At Dawn: Kingdom Keepers II (Ridley Pearson)

Disney At Dawn: Kingdom Keepers II

Ridley Pearson

Blurb: It's supposed to be a happy day at the Magic Kingdom - the teenage holographic hosts have returned. But things go very wrong when a sudden lightning storm disrupts the celebration, and Amanda's mysterious sister, Jez, dissapears. The only clue is the sighting of a wild monkey in the Magic Kingdom during the storm. The mystery deepens as Finn is contacted by Wayne, an old man he hasn't heard from in months. Wayne tells Finn that there's trouble at the Animal Kingdom: the evil Overtakers have gained control of one of the computer servers that will be used to operate Daylight Holographic Imaging there. That means if any of the holographic hosts fall asleep, they will go into comas - permanently. Filled with action and brimming with the same meticulous details as The Kingdom Keepers: Disney After Dark, this second book in the series - Disney at Dawn - is the result of hands-on research behind the scenes at Disney's Animal Kingdom Park. Younger and older readers alike will get a glimpse into a second Disney kingdom. The wild rides have only just begun, and the clock is ticking. How long can the teens keep themselves awake in their quest to find their friends - and what happens in they fail?

Disneyland - A Pictorial Souvenir Celebrating 45 Years of Magic (Tim O'Day)

Disneyland - A Pictorial Souvenir Celebrating 45 Years of Magic

Tim O'Day

Blurb: One familiar greeting at the Main Entrance has welcomed over 400 million guests since the opening of Disneyland Park in 1955: 'Hello and welcome to this happy place called Disneyland.' With the creation of the park Walt Disney conceived one of the most important entertainment landmarks of the 20th century...a place that transcends age, language, and politics. It has also become a living blueprint for all of the Disney theme parks and resorts that have followed in its successful example. However, it is still truly one-of-a-kind and 'will never be completed as long as there is imagination left in the world.' So whether this is your first visit with us or one hundredth, once again, we say 'Welcome!' As Walt Disney stated on opening day, 'Disneyland is your land' and we hope you have a fun-filled stay with us here at 'The Happiest Place on Earth' and leave with cherished memories that will last a lifetime.
