Disney Story Telling with Ridley Pearson

By TheAngelForever | October 17, 2012

Every time you go to Walt Disney World or another Disney park, you are part of a story. The rides, shows, Cast Members, and all of the little details are part of the tale. Now imagine being invited to hear a real Disney author talk and then get a tour of Epcot to see where his visions came from. This happened to me in April when I went to the Disney Social Media Moms celebration and heard author Ridley Pearson explain how The Kingdom Keepers and Peter and the Starcatchers were born. After the session, he took a group of us to visit Norway in Epcot and ride on Maelstrom. This only seemed fitting for the Disney Wordless Wednesday theme of Story Telling.

    Love Peter and the Starcatchers ( actually did a review of it on my blog, if you’re interested!) but haven’t read Kingdom Keepers yet. Have you read the series? what do you think?

    What a very cool experience!

    What a cool experience! My older daughter read the first couple of Kingdom Keepers books and then grew out of them – I think it’s about time to get her younger sister started!
