The Gospel According to Disney


Book Description

In this follow-up to his bestselling The Gospel According to The Simpsons: The Spiritual Life of the World's Most Animated Family, religion journalist Mark Pinsky explores the role that the animated features of Walt Disney played on the moral and spiritual development of generations of children. Pinsky explores thirty-one of the most popular Disney films, as well as recent developments such as the 1990s boycott of Disney by the Southern Baptist Convention and the role that Michael Eisner and Jeffrey Katzenberg played in the resurgance of the company since the mid-1980s.




Bambi


Book Description

The powerful original novel that inspired the classic animated film—a story of nature, loss, survival, and becoming an adult. This moving and eventful story, translated from the original German by David Wyllie, opens with the birth of a fawn in a thicket. Little Bambi rises to his feet immediately, as an overly talkative magpie marvels over this beautiful newborn. We then follow his journey through the innocent joys of youth into experiences of love, loss, and the complexity and danger of the wider world—where humans pose a mortal threat to his kind—and on to his years as an older and wiser prince of the forest. Bambi is a tale of beauty and allegorical depth that brings the realities of nature to vivid, emotional life.
