Synopsis

A must for any Disney-buff, this is a 19,000-entry, 376-page dictionary of Disney Trivia, encompassing EVERYTHING Disney. Comprised of the 26 time-honored "A to Z" chapters, the book also includes chapters on "Numbers," "Quotes," "Signs," "Dates," "Telephone Numbers," and "References." The author, a part-time Walt Disney World physician, wanted a trivia book--couldn't find what he wanted--so he started to write. Now, six years later, this 8 1/2 x 11" soft-cover volume is the first of many planned future editions. "Who can keep up with the creativity of Disney?" asks the author, Tony Rizzo.
