The Mystery at Disney World (Real Kids! Real Places!)
4 journalers for this copy...
On a Disney fiction kick at the moment :)
I love Disney World and I love reading fiction about it!
This is an alright story about four kids that get caught up in a kidnapping when they visit the Magic Kingdom. They get picked off one by one and are left clues by the captors that relate to a ride or attraction. Very Famous Five!
This is where you have to suspend belief for a while. The captors have been picking of children to ransom to their parents and hiding them in Cinderella Castle. How on earth have they been doing that? Considering you have to get past security to get in and there are cameras everywhere in Disney!
Also why did they bother leaving the kids clues? They said it was to give the kids the runaround but why lead them to the place you are keeping the kids? It didn't make any sense. I also wouldn't have picked the Stitch ride to feature in here since it's the least popular ride in the whole park.
I thought it was confusing that they used Star Wars as a clue for the Magic Kingdom. Star Wars belongs in Hollywood Studios and I thought that meant they would have to leave the park and go there but apparently it meant Space Mountain? I wouldn't have put that together.
There is better Disney fiction out there but this would be nice to give to a kid if they were going for the first time, as it does include lots of little facts about the park.

This is a light-weight entertaining read, although as mentioned in a previous review, has plenty of plot holes!!!! But still entertaining!
