Customer Reviews

A very good way to get your child involved in the planning.

I brought this book for my son to help him prepare for our trip in May 2001. He absolutely loved it! He made a list of all the rides and attractions that he thought he might want to experience himself. It was helpful to him to read the different reviews that came from each of the kids. As we walked around WDW he would say "I read about this ride in the book." This book also helped to enhance his reading skills, which is always a plus. I am anxiously waiting for the 2002 edition to come out since we have another trip planned for May 2002.

Disneyworld, kids' style

Kids visiting WDW should get this book!! It tells you which rides are too scary, rough, or intense. It also contains "Hidden Mickeys", a restaurant guide, & an autograph section!! No Disney kid should be without this book!!

Great, especially for kids 8 to 12

Gave lots of insights and tips. Our kids loved the "hidden Mickey" alerts and other interesting tidbits to pass the time. It helped our kids get a lot more out of the experience and really notice the detail that goes into each of the park's design and upkeep.I now buy it for every kid I know going to WDW.

Birnbaum's Walt Disney World For Kids By Kids

A friend showed me this book after returning from Disney. I found it to be very helpful and am ordering one for our family. The book tells what you need to know about the ride before you put them on it. That allows me to know whether or not a ride is too scary, rough or dark. That information is very helpful. My daughter is only 5, and she enjoyed looking at it with us. I think it is a must before you go to Disney World. It also has a section in the back for autographs and lots of helpful hints.

Just the thing to involve the kids

Let's keep in mind that this book is for KIDS==as such, it doesn't have much information that an adult can't find in the regular Birnbaum. However, I bought the 2000 edition for my then-7 year old, and she really enjoyed looking through it for our last trip. Now with another trip planned, I bought her the 2001 edition, and she gave the old one to her younger sister! We want to plan these trips as a family and these books keep her well-versed and knowledgable in what she wants to do and what might be fun for the younger siblings. She would probably give it the full 5 stars!
