So, I got both the Disney Cinderella Once Upon a Time Treasury and Disney Cinderella A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes little golden books. I was disappointed to realize I already had the art inside two of the Treasury books, the 1950 and 1998 film retelling illustrations, in previous books I own. I was hoping the last book would have illustrations in the sams style, or even be exactly the same illustrations as those in the 2012/2016 books such as the "Story of" princess collection books. Oh well. At least now I have the Cinderella's Friends book, even though I really do not care about that story. But the Dream is a Wish book has beautiful new illustrations! And interestingly there are some references in it to the 1950 book, like Cinderella's vanity, the pumpkin transformation, and the outfits of the guests at the ball. It is a book I was very glad to get. It even has some motifs from the film's opening titles! It is a lovely book, so I did get something great for the 75th anniversary so far...Funko Pops and perhaps a doll to come!

I’m up to Chapter 9. Not the most exciting read, but it has some interesting tidbits especially regarding how Roy E Disney basically stabbed Ron Miller in the back.
The Black Cauldron material is fascinating too.

Next up for me: Directing at Disney and Disney In Between: The Lost Years

It is mostly a very wonderful and near-perfect book. I was disappointed knowing I'd only get 5 pop-ups at first, but the choices for the pop-ups was perfect. It just loses a few points by recycling past pop -ups and illustrations. The Disney Princess pop-up book Brelly has has virtually the same dress transformation pop-up, and the Princess one did jt better! Also a repeat of Mathew Reinhart's own version of Cinderella in the way the coach pop-up was done. Also, many images were just slight redesigns of either the original film's stills or other book images, and even images from scenes repurposed for other scenes they were not from (like drawing Cinderella's "Oh I understand" scene as when she sees her pink mice dress...?!). Still, beautiful book I am glad to have. The palace ball pop-up was amazing.
