For Those Who Want More
If you've been to the Animal Kingdom at Walt Disney World, then you've seen the rides and attractions. And, if you're like me, you're curious about how the Disney Imagineers actually created these attractions, then this is a book you want. It doesn't reveal everything, but it does give the inquisitive mind a bit of substance to digest, beyond the usual Disney fluff and sales hype. As much as can be squeezed into any field guide, Disney's Imagineering Field Guide to Disney's Animal Kingdom gives you a working knowledge of "how'd they do that?" It's invaluable for the trivia minded as well. Most of us know that the Tree of Life has an oil derek as it's internal skeleton, but do you know how they buiult Expeditin Everest?

A must have - great addition to the series!
As a Disney fanatic, I have found this series of books to be a wonderful treasure. The Animal Kingdom is a wonderful continuation of this series, and, in many ways, is the best one yet. The details of how the Animal Kingdom was conceived, developed, and built are completely fascinating! I can't wait to visit the park again and notice all of the details I have missed on past trips!

Loads of trivia
A very entertaining and informative account of the making of The Animal Kingdom. Lots of insider information. I would recommend this book for anyone who craves the "back story".
