Most Disney fans would be able to tell you the stories of ‘The Little Mermaid,’ ‘Sleeping Beauty,’ and ‘Snow White’ according to the Walt Disney Animation Studios – they’ve become so ingrained in the public consciousness. These beautiful new hardback editions offer new insights into these animated classics.
As well as retelling these beloved stories, the books contain a wealth of paintings, sketches and concept art from the original Disney Studio artists.
It was fascinating to see how characters developed from the first sketches to finished articles and to learn about the artists who created them in a special section at the end of the book.
I am sure that fans of the Disney films would be absolutely thrilled to have one of these special hardback editions for their book collections, and they would make a great gift for younger fans to keep and enjoy as they grow up.

I am working with a renown artist at the moment, and I love seeing how my characters develop from rough sketches to completed full-colour covers or pen-and-ink spot images. Given these are Disney artists, I can’t wait to include them on my shelf, as much to enjoy the art as the timeless stories–which as it happens, I have never read. Thanks for the review.
