Deb Wills and Debra Martin Koma have written an excellent, comprehensive travel guide and planner of Walt Disney World. Written for those with "special needs" and everyone that just plain cares about all people and want to understand those special needs. Everyone deserves to experience happiness. In Walt Disney World, there is so much to be happy about, and to experience, and to become a child at heart again. Whether you are the caretaker, family, friend, or have health issues, then this wonderful, magical planner is for you. Deb Wills has for years prepared her AllEarsNet website with answers to questions about everything Disney. Deb has every WDW menu, photo, resort, map, description imaginable. Now, Deb has authored a "special needs" WDW planner with coverage of 24 special needs categories. And comprehensive information to help you plan your special adventure, getting there and back,staying in style, touring the world, dining your way. More detailed, excellent descriptions of every Disney ride, attraction, resort, restaurant; maps of parks, resorts, rooms; lists of ratings and websites of all of the above. I love this book. It has given me a better understanding how I can enjoy Disney more than I do now. And now, if you know friends with a special need, don't let them stay at home. Let everyone experience the Magic of Disney. Deb Wills is the real deal. Visit her at AllEarsNet website to see what I mean, then buy this very special needs book to carry with you as you travel to Disney. Sincerely, Ray Sharpton :)

Great Resource for Special Needs Children
I found this handbook to be a great resource, covering things we had no idea we were "entitled" to when traveling with our autistic son. There are many benefits built in to Disney World and the theme parks especially for children with special needs. If you need something for your child, JUST ASK!! Most, if not all, park employee's know these benefits, or can direct you to the person who does. When you get the handbook, make sure you have a highlighter to remind you of all the things available, you won't be able to remember them all!!!

Must Read if You Have Special Needs!!
Even though I am only half way thru this book, I can tell you it's a MUST READ if you plan on going to Walt Disney World and you or someone in your party have special needs. It covers everything, in great detail, from diet to mobility to fears. Deb Wills and Debra Martin Koma have created something really "Special"! Congratulations to all, including the publishing team!
