Disney in Verse: The Rhyme and Reason Behind Mickeys World

Poetry in Pixie Dust

Walt Disney World is many things to many people; for Colleen Myrhol, its her muse, her inspiration to capture the magic in lines of verse, with journalist Chuck Schmidt adding historical context to each poem. The result: a Disney book like no other!

At Disney World, Colleens multiple sclerosis presents an obstacle to full immersion in the parks, but her imagination has no limits, and so she "captures" each ride, each show, even some of the shops and restaurants, in beautiful rhyming poetry.

With his decades of experience as a newspaperman covering the "Disney beat," Chuck Schmidt provides the reason to Colleens rhyme, enhancing each poem with a meticulously researched article about that aspect of Disney history.

Together, Colleen and Chuck deliver a unique right-brain/left-brain look at Walt Disney World, equal parts fact and fancy, and 100% magical.
