5 comments about Walt Disney World with Kids, 2002.

1. This book is excellent! I have read 4 Disney guide books in the last 2 weeks and this is by far the best. Wiley writes in a manner that is far more enjoyable than the others. She has excellent tips for touring Disney and tips on how to make it as easy as possible with the greatest amount of enjoyment. There are clever tips through out the book that only a well seasoned Disney lover would know. I let a friend borrow this book and she too agreed that it was the best Disney guide she has ever read and she goes to Disney without kids! Well worth the money!!



2. I was completely unimpressed with this book. Beyond simple suggestions, that anyone with children would already know, this book offered NOTHING in new ideas or information. If you have been to WDW you will pick up errors in the book immediately. One example is the authors review/information on the Disney Village hotels. If you really want a guide that offers clear, relevant information go straight for Birnbaum's. "WDW with Kids" was my fifth Disney guide and Birnbaum's still has all others beat by a mile!!! If your choice of guides is this or nothing....go with nothing!! You can get the same information on the internet and save your money for the vacation.



3. i think this book *may* have value for some but it hasnt for me...i found that the info was a re-hash of other info available in other books (that most people already have by the time they buy this book) while some of the info is good i think this info PLUS other info can all be found in other books without buying separate versions...for instance i feel everything about what is appropreate for kids is available in the *unnoficial* disney books plus those books give a weath of info on more subjects.. i just feel that the disney trip is expensive enough..without thinking you *need* this book... some might get some info out of this book, but i would say *need* is a strong word...i think this is an adjunct at best



4. I found this book extremely helpful in helping me plan my last Disney vacation. Wiley provides a complete and clear guide to all the hotels on Disney property and unlike other guides (which if they're official say they're all wonderful and if they're unofficial say they're all overpriced) she gives information on the pluses and minuses of each resort.

   I also liked her information on which rides are good for which age kid and the fact that she's aware of what she calls the "scare factor." You can tell she's a mother herself who has been there and done that and has advice for others.




5. When I was planning our first trip to WDW, I felt it was so important to get my priorities for the trip straight as the number of choices, from hotels to which rides to go on was scary. I didn't want to make a mistake and waste time once we got to Walt Disney World. This book was fantastic as a trip planner. It is written in such a readable style, just as though someone were talking to you and giving you advice. I found everything to be just as she described when I got the resort. I really feel this book had a great big hand in making our vacation as sucessful as it was. I'm sending a copy of the latest one to my sister and her family in England before they go. Buy it and you won't regret it.

1. Hello! Please read the previous reviews with the knowledge that they were written for older editions of this book, written by different authors. I've lived next to WDW for ten years and this edition was rewritten to exclude any previous errors. I'd appreciate it if you'd judge this edition on its own merits. If you've read this edition, I'd appreciate your comments and reviews. Thanks!



2. This book was as interesting as it is helpful. It had a few pointers in it that the others didn't. The post-it notes come in handy to mark the items to re-read or remember before you leave on your trip.

1. I bought this map for a trip to Ft. Lauderdale this coming February. After reviewing the map I discovered that the maps ends just south of the airport. I guessing it ends just a few streets before my the street my hotel is on. Just wondering if there are other things like this missing from the map. Not a bad map otherwise.
