What Disney Hides
First of all, i just have to say WOW! This book really opened my eyes. The Author, Carl Hiaasen, explains how dirty Disney really is. Disney is too trusted by too many people. They don't even realize what really happens behind the curtains, sometimes even literally. Disney has such an influence on people that they go to extreme measures to not lose the trust of their customers and consumers. In other words, Disney will do anything to make money and keep making money. After having read this book, you will not look at Disney the same anymore.

Not much of anything.
This book is a long rant from someone who hates disney. I kept waiting for a valid reason, but one did not emerge. This 65 page rant was very boring. I wish i hadn't read it. -i should add i am also a native floridian and usually like hiaasen novels. Too bad.

Mice aren't nice
LOVED IT! It's a scary read however. Mr. Hiaasen is an excellent writer in his day job so I figured this would be good and it is. I'm not one of the few who hasn't been touched by the mouse machine.

New thoughts on Disney
I thought this book was very interesting. It was nothing like I have ever read before. I went to Disneyland over christmas break and all I could think about was this book. I have always loved Disney but I couldn't help but think how corupt it is. I kept telling my parents stories i read from this book but they didn't want to hear it. I'm sure like most people, my parents didn't want their happy thoughts about Disney tarnished. -KO in McIntyre 4

Great! Carl Hiaasen said what all Florida natives wanted to say. A great read.

A 'fun read'
Hiaasen writes well - and in a style which is serious in content, yet not so serious as to be dogmatic. I found myself laughing at his wit - while at the same time becoming more aware than ever of Disney's compulsion for absolute control. I highly recommend 'Team Rodent: How Disney Devours the World' - it is indeed a 'fun read'.

Personal insight at its best!
This book includes many personal observations from the author. I found it to be very intriguing and insightful. Many Disney enthusiasts might be offended, however everyone is entitled to their opinion. I'd recommend this book for anyone who enjoys a witty rendition of corporate hegemony. Five stars for a sarcastic kick in the pants to the 'mouse'.
