    Bit off topic, but since we may have to wait ages to hear back, I fancy reading some books on Disney, so far I've read Realityland, Mouse Tales, More Mouse Tales, Mouse Under Glass, and Mousetrapped; A Year and A bit in Orlando.... so I was wondering if all you amazing Disney pps had any further recommendations? :D thanks!

    Have you read "More Mousetrapped"? Its just a little addition to the book but its still worth a read, I like her style of writing. I've read a bunch of different books but there's a lot of garbage out there.

    Not sure if it's the sort of thing you'd be into, but there's a fiction book called Dream Factory. Clealy, the authors have never spoken to anyone who actually WORKS at WDW, but it talk enough about MK to get me excited :D

    Theres a few on my blog (on the links page) but to be honest I've read a few that I don't recommend! There is one in particular from someone that makes all sorts of crazy claims/stories... sorry, but I don't buy it! If your looking for personal stories about time spent working for WDW, I would stick to blogs and not books.

    I wrote my masters dissertation around a Disney based topic, I can suggest loads of disney books but some are vert heavy going and certainly not bed time reading. I can give you the titles if you want but I dont think they will be much use as light reading.

    Although Disney and His worlds is quite good by Alan Bryman, this is probably the lightest of all the books I could suggest and very interesting but still an academic text soooo dont know know how you feel about reading that in your spare time ??

    let me know
