5.0 out of 5 stars Note from the current author, December 16, 2004

By	Michelle Snow "author/journalist" (Orlando, FL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Hello! Please read the previous reviews with the knowledge that they were written for older editions of this book, written by different authors. I've lived next to WDW for ten years and this edition was rewritten to exclude any previous errors. I'd appreciate it if you'd judge this edition on its own merits. If you've read this edition, I'd appreciate your comments and reviews. Thanks!

5.0 out of 5 stars You're no Dummy if you read this, September 15, 2005

By	Dawn Marie "fireman's girl" (Chicago suburbs) - See all my reviews

This book was as interesting as it is helpful. It had a few pointers in it that the others didn't. The post-it notes come in handy to mark the items to re-read or remember before you leave on your trip.
