Disney Stories

Welcome to Disney Classics page. I am primarily sharing the condensed and altered storybook versions of box office classic films. These range from Snow White and Cinderella to modern day hits like Moana and Frozen. Moreover, in the near future, I will include read alouds of the extended Disney Classic Series of books. That’s the Disney Classic version of Alice in Wonderland picture on the left. The Disney storybooks in this series include more of the story and more animated photos in oversize books.

Walt Disney once reminded his listeners to never forget, “It all began with a mouse.” The most DISNEY of Disney Stories will always be those of Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Goofy and Pluto.

Disney bought The Muppets franchise built by the immortal Jim Henson. They are an ideal fit for the Disney brand of healthy, positive family entertainment. And while Sesame Street is not actually Disney, it seems right to categorize Sesame Street stories together with Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy and the rest.

For creating sweet dreams and good nights, it’s hard to beat revisiting The Hundred Acre Wood and Winnie the Pooh. Every “Winnie’sday” we will post a new story featuring Pooh bear, Tigger, Eeyore, Rabbit, Piglet, Kanga, Roo, Owl and Christopher Robin. To this day, even at my advanced age, I listen to Winnie the Pooh stories to help me turn my mind off and fall asleep.

Throwback Thursdays are where you’ll find Disney stories (and others) from the era following Walt Disney’s passing in 1966 up through the 1980s before the modern day classics like The Little Mermaid debuted (see Disney Classics)

Pixar Stories are, of course, Disney stories. But I’ve created a separate page for them to make them easier to find. Pixar has delivered storybook favorite characters like Flik, Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Nemo, Mater, Lightning McQueen and many others.
