The Thinking Fan’s Guide is a first-of-its-kind book that looks at the Magic Kingdom experience in a whole new light. Originally released in April 2013, the book treats each and every Magic Kingdom attraction to a full-length analysis, offering both newcomers and diehard Disney fans an all-new perspective on the attractions they love (or sometimes hate). It’s fascinating, informative, and often hilarious. Just read the rave reviews for the bestselling first edition.
Newly updated and expanded, the 2nd Edition looks at all of the latest additions to Magic Kingdom. Among them are Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Under the Sea ~ Journey of the Little Mermaid, Enchanted Tales with Belle, Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade, and Main Street Electrical Parade. Along the way, Wallace takes an even closer look at many of the existing attractions in light of Disney’s new storytelling style over the last few years. The result is an in-depth and intriguing book that even previous readers will find newly enthralling.
