1: Poorly written and incomplete
The story is incomplete and confusing. There are considerable gaps without a parent, adult or smart kid adding additional explanations as the story goes along. If you haven't seen the film you would find yourself scratching your head. Shame on Pixar and Disney for allowing such a poorly written book to be published. If your kid doesn't read, the pictures, frames right out of the cartoon, are great. (The two stars are for the pictures.) But, where were the editors? Is the assumption that kids don't read anyway, so who's going to notice? Well anyway, here's to the illiterates: the one's who call themselves editors and the one's they are cultivating.

3: Have read better
I am buying all the Disney Read-Aloud Story books for my sons. I have not been disappointed in any except this one. There is not enough story in the writing. Many details from the movie are left out. I think this might be due to the fact that they used a very large and bold typeface. Or is this a "who-came-first-the-chicken-or-the-egg" question.
I gave it 3 stars because the visuals are nice. I think they are taken directly from the film.

5: NICE ART, LOUSY WRITING
My 2 1/2 year old son loves this book and I think most children familiar with the movie will because it presents familiar characters and situations. But it feels *so* incredibly tossed off! The writing is slapdash, lackluster and just pathetically bad. Good storytelling is more than just hitting the high notes of a film -- if you're going to bother making a book, it should read well *as a book*. This book lacks the heart and soul that actually "animates" the movie.
