What self-respecting Disney fanatic could NOT read a book by Marty Sklaar, which details his 54 (yes 54) years as a Disney Imagineer? I was so excited to read this book, but so very sad that I wasn't able to be at WDW in September 12 and 13 when he was there signing copies. Now, that would've been way cool!
For my readers out there, if you have any interest in Disney at all, you should read Marty's book. It details some of the coolest stories in Disney history and made me love the company even more. It also made me sad that Walt is gone. If you are not a Disney fan, but you have an interest in developing leadership skills or want to read about an organization that is skilled in creating an amazing work ethic amongst its employees, you could read this book and learn a lot.
I will be honest and admit that I skipped the chapters on Euro-Disney and Disneyland Tokyo. I was just not interested in reading about the parks I had not been to. I also skipped a lot of Marty's lists of people who did this and that and were written about as though they were interviewing for a new job. But, the stories were super cool, as were his pictures.
I am a huge Disney fan. That's no big secret. But, after reading this book, I am a Disney supporter. They've got a good thing going inside their industry. Now...how do I become a part of it?
Happy reading, everyone!
