More Mouse Tales: A Closer Peek Backstage at Disneyland by David Koenig is an intriguing insight into Disneyland

My Book Review Rating: 4 stars – the perfect read for any Disney fan

I picked up this book ahead of my recent trip to Disney World – just to get me into the Disney spirit. In this follow up to the original Mouse Tales, Koenig continues his backstage look into Disneyland with hundreds more tales of what really happens behind the scenes at the Happiest Place on Earth.

This book contains much more gritty tales that the first; you’ll read about accidents that have happened on the attractions – hurting guests and cast members, the reasons why much-loved attractions have closed over the years and how the Disney Police raised money from unscrupulous guests.

I didn’t enjoy this book quite as much as the first; maybe a part of me didn’t like to read stories that made Disneyland feel more like a normal business than a place where you can check your cares and worries at the door and immerse yourself in the magic!

      Hi – Mouse Tales and More Tales focus on Disneyland – then Realityland
      (which I will review at some point this year) focuses on Walt Disney World
      in Florida.

      Always good to ehar from a fellow Disney fan :)

    Golden Rainbows by Christine Brannen Reilly

    When you’re caught up in the trials and tribulations of every day life where everything seems like a constant battle it takes someone like Mikey Reilly to make you realise that life is something you should be thankful for.

    Diagnosed with cancer at just eight months old Mikey became a constant visitor to the Children’s Hospital where over the years doctors and nurses battled against the disease.

    But during that time he never complained about the hand that life had dealt him, instead he was a beautiful, courageous and outgoing little boy who stole the hearts of everyone he ever met.

    Through the stories that Christine has so gracefully shared with the world I felt like I came to know Mikey and loved reading about his Valentine’s Day “date” with one of the support team, and his beautiful friendship with Summer Sanders. As a fellow lover of Disney World the recollection of him dancing with the princesses in the parade will stay with me and I’ll think of Mikey next time I’m standing on Main Street USA.

    I’m Feeling Lucky by Douglas Edwards

    I have to admit that I’m a bit of a closet Google fan, so when I got advance notice that Douglas Edwards was publishing a “behind the scenes” look at this infamous company I dropped Penguin a line and asked for a copy of the book.

    At 432 pages it’s not a brief read by any means, but I enjoyed every minute of it!

    The Kingdom of Childhood by Rebecca Coleman

    “In Bavaria the snow is always very deep. Once the first flakes dall it quickly buries everything that rests on the country earth: hedgehog nests, lost underpants, drawings of a crucified Jesus clumsily wrought in coloured pencil, worn bars of Fels-Naptha laundry soap good for removing most stains. I have seen all of these things vanish beneath that snow that rots everything, and if ever there was anything colder or more beautiful than a German winter I have yet to experience it.”

    –extract from opening chapter–
