Disney Princess Storybook Collection
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This was a gift to my daughter from my brother-in-law. She loves Disney, princesses, and books, so that makes this an instant win with her. The stories are a little long for young children though. Really, she does better with the 5-minute stories rather than the storybook collections, though she still loves them. I expect this will be more fun to read with her when she is older, has a better attention span for the stories, or can even read them herself.

A Treasury of Tales: Christmas Storybook Collection
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
With 18 different Christmas tales, each one from a different Disney movie, it's no wonder that this Treasury collection was a big hit the day we found it. While it's not Christmas time yet, I can see this being requested often as we work through the stories again coming up on the holiday and after. Of course, what Christmas collection would be complete without some rendition of A Christmas Carol. The stories are a little longer and more detailed than most children's books as they are probably meant for older kids overall. Still, if limited to one or two stories at a time, it is no problem for our 4-year-old to follow along. The toddler will take awhile to catch up.
