Book Review - Pencils, Pens & Brushes: A Great Girls' Guide to Disney Animation

Pencils, Pens & Brushes: A Great Girls' Guide to Disney Animation



About the Book
Based on Mindy Johnson's critically acclaimed Disney Editions title, Ink & Paint: The Women of Walt Disney's Animation, this nonfiction picture book is a fun and inspiring look at many of the amazing women who have worked at Disney Animation over the years-from Story Artists, to Animators to Inkers and Painters, all with unique personalities and accomplishments, such as becoming a record-holding pilot, or designing Hollywood monsters, or creating an international club for tall people!




My Take on the Book
What an inspirational book for young women to read. As a fan of Disney I knew of this division of the early Walt Disney company. I had heard of some of these women, but this book brings out the stories of these remarkable women in so many new ways. I am SO impressed at all they accomplished and to be honest I am very happy to have had the chance at reading this book with my youngest daughter. By the end of the book we had a great conversation about perseverance and how things were different when these women were in the company and how things have changed (for the better) for women in Disney today!
