What a Find!

So I was wandering through the BYU Bookstore today after my shift. I walked over to the Children's Book section.

I looked through a few books that I remember from my childhood (which is always fun). I was getting ready to leave when I walked by the Bargain section.

And there they were! Stacks and stacks of some of my favorite books -- Mary Blair Disney books. Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan.

And the best part! Only $6.99 each! I quickly picked up the best copy of Cinderella I could find.

Sadly, I already have the other two (Christmas Presents) and paid full price for them! But now my collection is complete!

I think these books are great - Mary Blair's syle is so fun and fresh. She did all the concept art for these movies back in the 50s. She also designed Small World at Disneyland.

(Pictures from Amazon, but you really should buy the books at the BYU Bookstore.)
