5.0 out of 5 stars A must-have for animation fans!, July 3, 2000

By	"monkeyfrnd" (Hollister, CA USA) - See all my reviews

The Lady & the Tramp sketchbook is just a beautiful book to add to any Disney fan's collection. This book is HUGE and it is full of wonderful sketches of all of the characters (even minor ones) and full color photos from the movie. This is an excellent book for anyone who loves Disney animation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Disney's Sketchbooks - Great Resource for Artists!, March 26, 2001

By	Bruce Gray "gurpsgm" (Shenandoah Valley, VA, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This fine addition to the Disney Sketchbook series has many of the wonderful sketches done by Disney's animation department for Lady and the Tramp, including many pieces from the storyboards, and several sketches of scenes that never made it into the final film.

Artists that would like to study the Disney style of drawing and animation should find this volume a terrific addition to their collection despite its rather high price. As a student of art, and a fan of the Disney style, I highly recommend any of these books for your library.

This review is from: WALT DISNEY'S LADY AND THE TRAMP (LITTLE GOLDEN BOOK) (Hardcover)

ISBN 0307010279 - Lady and the Tramp is another Disney/Golden Book that just misses the mark, with a rushed effort to tell too many details making for a poor telling of an excellent story. The illustrations are great, as is usual with Disney, of course,

Lady has a happy life but The Tramp, a homeless dog, tells her that will change when a baby comes into the house. And when a baby does come, Lady worries. Darling and Jim Dear have less time for her and then, to make matters worse, Aunt Sarah comes and immediately orders Lady to be tied up in the yard... and muzzled! The Tramp releases her from her rope and her muzzle and offers to go anywhere she likes; he's shocked when she chooses home. Thankfully, they arrive in time to alert the family to a fire and, out of gratitude, Jim Dear and Darling take The Tramp into their home.

The speed with which things happen would make a normal person's head spin, not the children are actually normal people. Lady is tied up, freed, returns home, all seemingly within a few hours. There's no adventure for Lady and The Tramp - and no spaghetti! Children aren't likely to be bothered by this, but parents who know the tale will see the holes in the story. Worth reading, but keep an eye out for a more complete adaptation.
