Part of the Today in History series

Paperback / softback

Description

This irresistible read is packed with fun facts and tasty tidbits about Disney, from stories about the entertainment empire's founding family to the inspiration for many of the popular theme park attractions.

Memorable dates include: - May 11, 1904 -- The great surrealist painter Salvador Dali was born in Igueras, Catalonia.

His 1946 collaboration with Walt Disney was one of the most unusual partnerships in the entertainment industry. - December 2, 1929 -- The Haunted House, in which Mickey Mouse takes shelter from the storm in what turns out to be a well populated mansion, was released in theaters.

This movie was the first time animators created what was to become a popular Disney setting. - January 9, 1937 -- The release of Donald Duck's second film, Don Donald, proved that Donald was capable of carrying a series without any help from Mickey.

It also served as the debut vehicle for a ducky girlfriend called Donna, who was later renamed Daisy. Released to coincide with the company's 18-month-long 50th anniversary celebrations, Today in History: Disney has something for Disney fans of every generation.
