148202Walt DisneyHannnah BrassardI chose Walt Disney because he looked interesting and I wanted to learn how Disney was made and learn about their studios. My book is a biography book called ¨Who was Walt Disney¨? The amount of pages in the book is 101 pages. The book Who was Walt Disney took me about Three  weeks to read.The book was made in 2009 and Walt was born December 5,1901. and died December 15,1966. The book was mad. Written by-Hannah

148272Walt Disneyby HannahWalt Disney was born in Illinois and grew up and raised in Chicago. He had an older brother named Roy and a younger sister named Ruth. He had a mother named Flora and a Father named Elias. Walt \,Roy and Ruth went to school at Mckinley High School and Walt went to Kansas City Art School. Walt was interested in engineering and technology; he did not like the subject Math. Walt had an opportunity to go to paint with his favorite artist in Chicago when he lived in Illinois so he took a train to go to paint and when he got there he decided to open the Disney Studio. Roy also moved there to work and later on, Walt's mom and dad died. The people who influenced Walt in his life were his mom dad and his older brother Roy. He became a newspaper boy so every morning he went to deliver and have a nap and then head off to school. He had a dream that he could make a big park just for him and his daughters, but he decided to make it into a world exploring park. He wanted to become a painter but that did not work out so he became an animator and then an engineer, then he made a Disney park.

148273Walt Disneyby HannahWalt Disney was challenged many times in his life. He has struggled building Disney because he had trouble with bankruptcy. The amount cost of  Disney Land was $17 million dollars and for Disney World it cost around $400 million dollars. He could overcome his problems by working at the studios and delivering newspapers to people. The people who contributed were Roy, his brother His,mom Flora and his sister, Ruth. Walt had a lot of events. The first one he had. The 3 qualities Walt has is he is a hard worker because he built and engineered a whole Disney park. He is also Creative because he made a little roller coaster cart in his backyard for his two daughters and his nieces and nephew. He is loving to his two daughters and his family. Walt Disney had lung cancer and died at the age of 65. Walt won 22 Oscars and two Golden Globe specials. He made two Disney parks. If I met Walt Disney I would ask. How did you make those parks? Did it take you a long time to make those parks? How was your life as a kid? I would want to be his child because he has a good life and seems like he has a good family. My opinion on the book was I thought it was a good book and I loved It.
