“What if it was Belle’s mother who cursed the Beast?” When I heard about the book As Old as Time, by Liz Braswell, I was certainly intrigued. Twisted fairy tales are one of my favorite story genres, and Beauty and the Beast is my favorite fairy tale, so it sounded like it would be right […]
Disney mug of the Month: RunDisney
When I went to Disney World for the marathon I was really hoping there would be a marathon mug that I could buy. Sadly there was not, though I did get a travel mug. They had a 2017 RunDisney mug but since it wasn’t marathon specific I wasn’t sure if I wanted it. After thinking […]
Never Never book review
Never Never, by Brianna Shrum, is a new take on the story of Peter Pan. The villain perspective has been very popular lately, and this time the story is from the point of view of Captain Hook. Retellings of fairy tales and classic stories are probably my favorite genre of book to read. However, I’ve […]
Disney mug of the month: Trader Sam’s
I’ve gotten two new mugs already this month, with at least one or two more on the way or that I’m planning to buy. I’m also reading a couple of good books right now so it was hard to figure out all the things I wanted to feature in this mug of the month blog […]
Disney mug of the month: Classic Mickey
I won’t say that I buy a mug EVERY time I go to Disney, but I will admit that it certainly happens a lot. On this past trip I was really hoping for a marathon mug at the expo, but unfortunately they didn’t sell one. I did get a travel mug, but that’s not a […]
Disney mug of the month: Christmas
As you may have guessed, I have a pretty large Disney mug collection. But one thing that was notably absent from my collection was any sort of Christmas or holiday mug! I was very fortunate that things soon changed. I signed up for a holiday mug swap through one of the blogging groups I’m in […]
Disney mug of the month: Ratatouille
When I was in Paris I was on a quest to find some unique Disneyland Paris merchandise. I was a little disappointed that there wasn’t a wide variety of items available only in Paris – a lot of it was the same stuff you can get over here. There was some, though, and one of […]
An Educational Guide to Tomorrowland + giveaway!
One of the things that I think makes Disney so special is that it’s a ton of fun, but also has a lot of learning opportunities. I recently wrote and published my first book, called An Educational Guide to Walt Disney World. I’m going to be giving away a copy of that book today, but […]
An Educational Guide to Walt Disney World
This is a project I’ve been working on for a year now, and it’s finally ready to share. All of my life I’ve wanted to write my own Disney guide book, but there are so many out there already. I didn’t want to write the same things that everyone else I wrote. But if there’s […]
Book Review: Poor Unfortunate Soul
This post contains affiliate links. They say “don’t judge a book by its cover,” but as a librarian I can tell you that we totally do – and with good reason. It’s hard to truly know if you’ll like a book and a cover is one of the few indicators we have! The covers on […]
