Designed by Dirk Luyks for Walt Disney. Edited by Darlene Geis. First edition, 1978. Harry N. Abrams, Inc.
"He came into the world early one morning, in the middle of a little forest glade screened in by leaves and branches on all sides. There was barely room for him and his mother. The baby fawn stood swaying on wobbly legs, as if surprised to find himself out in the strange world. "What a beautiful child," said a magpie..." - Bambi
A wonderful book for Disney fans of all ages. And it makes a wonderful keepsake to be passed from mother to daughter to granddaughter, as we've done in my family.
Front flap:
"Some of the best-loved stories in children's literature have been give a wider frame on the screen because Walt Disney touched them with his magic.
"Now seventeen of the most popular stories - Disney magic and all - are between book covers, gathered into one lavish volume that includes fairy tales, classics, and contemporary stories. The entertaining texts, unique to this edition, are freshly edited versions from Disney's own film scripts and the original stories. Each is dramatically illustrated with stills from the animated feature films themselves: lush cinematic backgrounds with all the lively Disney characters vividly enacting their roles."
Each story is followed by the story of the production of the film with photos of Disney and others involved in the film.
