5 out of 5 stars treasure hunt   September 26, 2005
 14 out of 15 found this review helpful

My 8 yr old son, my husband and myself had fun with the book. It was like a treasure hunt! We looked for hidden Mickeys on the rides and while waiting in line. It gave my son something to do instead of complaining about the wait.

The only drawback... The size of the book. It did not fit into my fanny pack. So I had to tear the sections. ie the Magic Kingdom chapters.

I definitely recommend the book.



3 out of 5 stars Good if you're in WDW   August 10, 2005

This is a great book to take to WDW, but if you're reading it at home, it's not of much value. The author gives hints of where to find the hidden Mickeys, like a treasure hunt. But like a treasure hunt, you have to be there to find (or appreciate) it. If you're in WDW, 5 Stars; if not, 3.


5 out of 5 stars Hidden Mickeys is even better the second time around!!!   May 16, 2005
 23 out of 25 found this review helpful

Just when you thought you've seen and done everything there is to do in WDW, along comes Hidden Mickeys! The cleverly-disguised tributes to our favorite mouse can be found all throughout the WDW Resort, and Steve Barrett does an amazing job in not only helping you find them, but creating a fun scavenger-hunt type book to add an extra dimension to your visit! (Oh, and don't worry, he has hints if you get stuck, and detailed descriptions of the locations if you still can't find them!) No more "down time" walking through the parks or standing in line - once you start looking for Hidden Mickeys, you'll be hooked! The book is a perfect, pocket-size companion that I have taken to the parks on my visits.

The Second Edition has some of the best new Hidden Mickeys that Imagineers have planted, and is not only a great companion while at the parks, but a fun read even at home! Steve's initeraries really help pass the time, and next thing you know, you'll be looking for Hidden Mickeys everywhere! Fun for Disney fans of all ages, and a great activity for kids, too!

My highest recommendation!!!

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Scavenger Hunt   March 19, 2005
 11 out of 11 found this review helpful

Been there, done that...think you've done everything there is to do at Walt Disney World and the surrounding areas? (Yes, the hotels, the Sports Complex, EVERYTHING.) Just like making something out of an old pair of jeans, this book tells you how to have more fun at same-old-place Disney! (Of course, I would never think of WDW like that, but some people do.)

Hidden Mickeys are special Mickey Mouses that the Imagineers have hidden all around WDW. Some are easier to find than others. Some are even off-limits to guests. Some are found in shops, some are found ON RIDES! That means you have to ride Thunder Mountain Railroad to find a Mickey on this special scavenger hunt.

It works on a point system. What you do is go to the certain place, let's say MGM-Studios, and it tells you certain vague areas of where to look, say Jim Henson's Muppet 3D Vision. If you're stuck, you can look at the clues. That narrows down the search a bit. Then, if you're STILL stuck, you can go back and look at the answers.

You can either choose to use the index or the whole walkthrough. You could say, "Well, we're waiting in line for the Great Movie Ride, so let's see what Mickeys are in here." Then you go back to the index, look up Great Movie ride, and you can see the locations for the Hidden Mickeys. Or, you could just go through the whole MGM-Studios section and do exactly what it says. Yes, it will say something similar to this: "After you leave the Villians in Vogue shop, head over too Mama Melrose's Restaurante Italiano for three Hidden Mickeys." It gives you an entire itinerary!

Well, I hope that this review helped. It is recommended for all ages!
