5.0 out of 5 stars Disney's Art of Animation: From Mickey Mouse to Hercules, October 2, 2002

By	Media Master "dguy" (Golden, CO United States) - See all my reviews

This book is excellent. It is also very different from the 1st edition in 1992 which featured Beauty and the Beast. About 50% of the book is all new from the previous edition and it's really worth owning both versions. Gives you much insight into the making of Hercules and in '92 edition into Beauty and the Beast. Great pictures and lots of good information in a very entertaining format. All ages in our family enjoy the book from 4 years old on up. You will too. I Wonder when the next edition will come out?

4.0 out of 5 stars A great book!, July 23, 1999

By A Customer

This book is great! The only complaint I have is that the "middle" features seem to have been neglected. The very early and the very recent ones are well covered and illustrated. The section on Hercules is phenomenal!! But I would recommend The Encyclopedia of Walt Disney's Animated Chracters by John Grant instead of this one, it has more information and better pictures. But if you buy both that's even better! I did!

I purchased this item for my grandson who is interested in filmmaking and animation. He was thrilled with the book. Previously he was borrowing
older issues from the library. Now he has his own copy.
