My preschooler and I both enjoyed reading these Christmas-themed stories featuring beloved Disney characters, but like a previous reviewer has mentioned, some of the illustrations are not up to standard. These illustrations are not clear (with a faded like appearance), lack definition, and sharpness. In contrast, some others are beautiful to look at - with the image quality appearing clear and sharp. The stories are generally quite well-written and manage to integrate the Christmas theme beautifully. The stories in this collection are:
A Toy Christmas from Toy Story
Christmas Under The Sea from The Little Mermaid
Mickey's Christmas Carol from Mickey Mouse
One Cool Yule from The Aristocats
The Sweetest Christmas from Winnie the Pooh
The Wonderful Winter Tree from Bambi
A Christmas to Remember from Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs
The Best Christmas from Dumbo
Christmas Laughs from Monsters, Inc
A Merry Christmas for Mice from Cinderella
A Big Blue Christmas from Finding Nemo
Lady's Christmas Surprise from Lady and the Tramp
The Enchanted Christmas from Beauty And The Beast
Flik's Christmas Invention from A Bug's Life
Christmas for Everyone from Robin Hood
The Perfect Gift from Pinocchio
A Gift for Wall-E from WALL-E
The Puppies' First Christmas from 101 Dalmatians

On the whole - value for money collection of Christmas-inspired stories featuring familiar and beloved Disney characters. Recommended!

I'm rating this storybook three stars because of the great integration between classic Disney holiday stories and original stories featuring favorite Disney characters. Sadly aside from the compilation of stories and the fact that this book is hardcover, that's where the comparison ends between this edition and other Disney story collections. The main thing that threw me off was the fact that NONE of the illustrations are cohesive. It's obvious that some drawings were 3rd and 4th rate. Then, with a new story, the pictures were beautiful and full of true color as should be expected from a name like Disney. Thankfully my preschooler is just happy having another book to choose from for storytime. Although she too has commented on how some characters look "weird" in the book.

Bought this storybook and it came with the pages upside down. Amazon replaced it immediately, but you may get one too!

I purchased this book as one of my little princesses Christmas gifts. Every night I have read one story for her until it was all done. The princess loved the stories because lots of them were original and new. They were not duplicates of the same stories written in various Disney books. Illustrations are fine and stories are well written. It is a good Christmas book and a heartwarming gift. Even after the Christmas, from time to time she digs in to the stories and checks them out! She has most of the Disney Story Book Collection (Big Thick Books) but she specifically likes this one. This book has her seal of approval, so I am pretty much sure that your sweet heart will also love it.

Wanted to start a tradition with grandkids so bought this book to read to them around christmas. It has the same stories we have all known for years, but has the Disney characters in it to keep the new genration of kids interested.

Every year I get my son a book at Christmas. This book is great (Espescially if you like Disney). It has several stories to read in one book. Great!

Even though I am only in my twenties and dont have any kids, I still love collecting sweet books like this that remind me of my childhood. This book is very well made and the bright pages beautifully display classic disney art. It is definitely something I plan to hold onto for my own kids one day. Its a great addition to any disney fan's library!!

I love these Disney Story Book Collections! They have great short stories that are fun for the whole family and just short enough to read before bed, and still get a fun story! I highly recommend this book! Five Stars.

My neice loved this the minute she opened it for Christmas, big words, colorful pictures and so fun to see the Disney Characters in a Christmas Story

My children tell me this is my grandaughter's favorite gift, a happy collection she really enjoys...considering how many Chanukah gifts she got from many people, this really is special.
