Abstract

The stories here are generally three or four pages in length, with plenty of typical Disney illustrations. They are in six groups: stories about family, about honesty and integrity, about love and friendship, about courage and responsibility, about fairness and judgment, and about happiness. To my surprise, the several things Disney has done that actually are fables are not represented here! I refer especially to GA and TH. Of the first stories that I read, many are excerpts from longer Disney stories and movies. These certainly are moral tales. One could get a good view of American values from reading these stories. They are introduced by a minister who mentions faith but not God or Jesus.
