  • Fantasia: A Short Story for Children and Adults

    Jane Turley

    language (Sweet and Salty Books, Oct. 10, 2015)
    The year is 2031 and Walt Disney, suspended in cryogenic suspension since 1966, has been brought back to life by Dr Corey, a scientist researching brain function for the purpose of suspending life for space travel. But Dr Corey gets more than he bargained for when Walt awakens. Opinionated, arrogant and still in love with films, Walt is overawed when he discovers what has happened to the world in the intervening years: films are a whole-body experience, all human organs except the brain are replaceable and research is underway to preserve life so mankind can reach the outer edges of the universe. But what shocks Walt most is the news that the world is being affected by catastrophic climate change...Fantasia is a universal story containing humour and pathos. It is particularly suitable as an educational tool for children who are beginning to learn the science of climate change and understand the concept of social responsibility. It was originally written by Jane for her children, all big Disney fans, and first published in Jane's adult short story collection, A Modern Life. It has now been released independently so it can reach the audience for whom it was initially intended.
