This volume is worth reading and owning for Disney fans of any age. It's got single- or double-page profiles or Disney and Pixar characters from almost every major feature since Snow White (a notable omission that jumps to mind is The Black Cauldron--incidentally the only classic film I missed as a child and had to find and watch as a young adult. LOVE it!) Naturally, to cover every last one in great detail would require numerous volumes much thicker than this one, but they did a fine job of trying to profile at least the main character(s) from each film, and then mentioning or including an image of some other significant, connected ones. Yes, many of the entries consist of basic descriptions and plot summaries that are fun to read but don't reveal anything unknown--but the entries that do build upon your Disney knowledge are what really make the whole book worth a close look.Some have "Fun Facts" (again, certain ones more obvious than others) or "Cool Quotes" (perhaps "Not-So-Cool Quotes" if the speaker's a villain, or it's something the authors deem negative), and the basic layout for a page is: Character name, film title and year, large image, smaller image(s) with captions, main text, and any other little features or factoids they decided to include. A few characters are combined with (an)other(s) who are closely related or go along with them. Though everything and everyone can't be mentioned, the ones that are covered will remind you and make you start thinking about all of the various other beloved characters and animations there are, and comparisons you can draw. Many of the less common movies (classic/older and more modern) are featured, and various short films are named. (The Princess and the Frog and Tangled are too recent to have been included.
