4.0 out of 5 stars good tips, easy read, not as detailed as I would have liked, March 19, 2006
By Jill Witherspoon (Boulder, CO USA) - See all my reviews
I wanted to buy one guide book and took a chance on this one. It is very readable and has helpful hints, money & time saving tips, insider secrets, and scare factor boxes highlighted throughout. The Don't Miss List and Quick Guides to Attractions for each park are handy. If you want an 'executive overview' that doesn't overwhelm you, it's a good choice.
However, if you want to know what is missing from this book and you're the sort that craves detailed info, get the Unofficial Guide to WDW (not the For Kids version). It is a fun read, but much longer. It has kid oriented info, plus much more. For example, a hotel to park minutes chart, a list of best off-site family hotels with swimming pool ratings, excruciating detail on the best way to score seats at Cinderella's Royal Table for breakfast, Character to Person ratios at Character Meals, detailed touring plans for each park, and lots of reader comments that supplement the text and provide some countering viewpoints...

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Basic Book for Families Considering Disney World, December 23, 2005
By A. Reid (NC, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
Good basic book covers such elements as lodgings, food & the activities you might expect to encounter in all the Disney parks...and a few off Disney. Most valuable, perhaps, is the "scare" rating they offer for various rides. My child lands somewhere in the high middle of the daredevil scale, and I expect this feature to be very valuable for helping him decide which rides will delight him and which rides might spoil his day. I'm in the process of reading other Disney books as well, so I don't know yet whether this is the best of the lot or simply a good one, but I do feel confident enough to recommend it to any parent planning a trip to Disney. My tip: read the book before you make your reservations, if you're staying onsite. Disney has so many resorts that it can be baffling to figure out which one might work best for your family. It's also a good idea to check out independent review sites to find out what other families have thought about their accommodations. One of the best I've found is http://allearsnet.com/ which really helped us narrow down our options.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keeps Getting Better, September 6, 2005
By Leigh (North Carolina) - See all my reviews
I have bought Walt Disney World With Kids four times in the last six years and in my opinion the guide contains more and better information each year. We have several conditions in our family (such as twins and a child with health issues) that make a trip to Disney World even more challenging than it is for the average family and I think Ms. Wiley does a great job of giving advice. Her plus and minus rating for Disney hotels has been a great help to us through the years, and her advice on how to save time and avoid long lines is right on the money. As a parent, I especially appreciate her insights into what rides are most appropriate for what ages of children. Unlike the other guides (we buy them too!) she does not focus exclusively on seeing it all, but instead gives you solid advice on how to see the things that will most enthrall your kids based on their ages and their ability to handle scary rides. The guide is clearly directed toward parents, not just your average Disney traveler and I think this makes it the most helpful of all the many Disney books on the market.

Angela Bonney, mother of four
