Realityland: True-Life Adventures at Walt Disney World
David Koenig
Bonaventure Press, 2007
The hard facts behind creating the ultimate fantasy land

Mouse Trap: Memoir of a Disneyland Cast Member
Kevin Yee
Ultimate Orlando, 2008
This is really how it is folks!
The reviewers who trashed this book because it tells the story of being a Disneyland cast member in a non-magical way are missing the point. This IS what working at Disneyland is like. I know, I was also a long-time cast member and believe me it is not all fun and ...

Born Standing Up: A Comic's Life
Steve Martin
Scribner, 2007
Big Laughs, Big Heart
I adore Steve Martin's work. I grew up watching his brilliantly nonsensical movies informed by classic literature and art. I revel in his physical comedy, and I had a good time watching Picasso at the Lapin Agile. Don't tell anyone, but as kids, my brother and I ...
