Well, I wasn't originally going to count these books, but it ended up being enough reading IMHO to combine them into counting as one book.
I read Little Known Facts About Well Known Places: Disneyland by David Hoffman and Little Known Facts About Well Known Places: Walt Disney World by Laurie Flannery
They are books that are just short of 200 pages full of fun and interesting facts about the two Disney Parks.
Such as...
Disneyland's original Tinkerbell was Tiny Kline, a 4 foot 10 inch tall circus performer and aerialist who was 71 years old when she first flew down a zipline from the top of the Matterhorn to start the "Fantasy in the Sky" fireworks show.

A zipline down from the matterhorn - how awesome would that be!
I'll bet they could sell tickets at premium prices!

But they would put Tinkerbell out of work. lol.......
I think it's amazing that she did that at 71. :o I am guessing nowadays Tink is probably in her 20s. :p
