Books in Walt Disney Classics series

"This is a story about darkness and light, about sorrow and joy, about something lost and something found. This is a story about love."Cinderella's story has been told over and over, but never has it been touched by the kind of magic created by the contributors of this book. Mary Blair painted the original pictures for Walt Disney's incomparable animated film, and here her elegant art is gathered together as a picture book. Cynthia Rylant's stories about hardscrabble lives have won not only awards and honors, but hearts. Who better to take a young girl from the darkness of her garret room to the light and brilliance of a ballroom? Together these two great artists have created something quite astonishing: a Cinderella that is breathtaking, heartrending, and joyous, both for those who are coming to the tale for the very first time, and for those who think they know it well.

When Alice follows the White Rabbit down the Rabbithole, she finds herself in Wonderland, a magical place where nothing is what it seems. Join Alice's adventures with the grinning Cheshire Cat, the Mad Hatter, and the Queen of Hearts in this adventurous tale. Beautifully illustrated on every page, this classic Disney storybook is sure to become a favorite in any beginning library. It makes an excellent first reader for young children.
