Summary: If you read Mouse Tales, don't read this!
Review: I read Mouse Tales twice in a two week period. I could barely get through this book! There were pages I skipped because I found it so boring. Being that I read Mouse Tales within the past couple of months, I saw repeated statements in More Mouse Tales. It seems as if the author ran out of things to say, so he found employees (or many former ones!) to trash Disneyland and to blow the lid off The Happiest Place on Earth and it's politics. Disneyland fans do not need to know this. I would rather be oblivious to the nasty politics, backstabbing and other [stuff]that goes on there. Disneyland is there to make people forget this gloomy world - not to be reminded of it as this book does.

Summary: More Tales
Review: I read the first book and had a nagging doubt about my impressions. Was it too casually written for me? Yeah. Was it too much heresay? Perhaps. I've bought and read nearly all of the books Amazon sells about Disney. I love the parks, the management goals and the personalities. I just didn't feel that this was more than a collection of the stories that weren't good enough for the original book. Maybe I'm too selective, but the stories about how characters fend off rude children was boring. A book for the Disney addict only.

Summary: A solid follow-up to the original book
Review: I read the original book and like the original, this book gives the reader information about what it must be like to work at the Disneyland Park. Like the original, it gives information about the people who work at the park and some of the things that the Disney Company does to try to maintain the feeling of magic for its customers. I enjoyed both this book and the original, but I have to wonder if I would have the same feeling about this book if I had not already read the original. I guess I will never know about that for sure. I enjoyed reading the many stories about how things work at Disneyland. I especially enjoyed the little boxes at the bottom of many pages of this book that quoted funny customer comments and sometimes gave bits of trivia about the park. I was fascinated by the stories of people who get hurt after ignoring or purposely circumventing safety mechanisms and rules while trying to pull some sort of shenanigan. Worse yet is how these same people turn around and sue the park, trying to blame the park for not protecting them from their own foolishness. This book also details some of the difficulties that have occurred between management and labor. While I found some of this interesting, I found most of it to be tedious reading. All companies have management/labor difficulties from time to time and I personally don't care to read about it in a book such as this. This aspect seemed incongruous to the rest of the book. Overall, I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in how Disney runs their parks and makes those parks so popular. This book is a good sequel to the original, but I am afraid that the reader might have to read the original book to get the most from this book.

Summary: This sequel is just icing on the cake from the first book.
Review: I was so thrilled to see the sequel to the first Mouse Tales that I bought it immediately, and I was not disappointed. It goes further into Disneyland lore by touching on subjects the first book didn't mention. Maps of rides, more gruesome tales, and even greater detail, make this yet another must-buy for any Disneyland fan. Highly recommended.

Summary: What really happens at Disneyland
Review: I would have to say this is a great book! If you are a true disney fan you will love this. It has all the behind the ears looks at the Disneyland park. It's very intresting to read about all the freaky things that happen when guests aren't there! I HIGHLY reccomend this book to any disney fan!

Summary: IT'S ABOUT TIME, DAMN IT!
Review: I'm so refreshed that somebody finally had the guts to put in writing what Disneyland, or rather "EisnerLand" is all about these days. Outside of David Letterman occasionally making the off-hand unflattering remarks on "The Late Show," I've never seen any wide spread publication about Disney Corp. quite this nervy, or quite this blatant. If you hate the Disney corporation (like I do), then you definitely need to read this book, and even if you don't, you are living in a fantasy land (pun intended), and you STILL need to read this book.

Summary: Entertaining but sometimes childish
Review: If you are a true Disney fan, then buy this book. It cronicles what it is like working at "The Happiest Place on Earth". I recently bought annual passes to Disneyland and I thought it would be cool to know what "really" goes on at the Magic Kingdom. Unfortunately, in this book, many of the stories are from a while ago. Another thing I didn't like about this book was the way the stories were told. The author made it sound like some of these events happen everyday when in fact they are odd occurances that happened once or a few times in 45 years! Overall, decent book. It is very easy to read and entertaining.
Rating: 
Summary: It's a sequel
Review: It's a good book, with lots of fun details, but Koenig is definately writing a sequel. Many times he mentions events mentioned in his previous book, which was more annoying to me than anything else. There is some fun inside of each of the rides in Disneyland Park, however. It's a worth while read.
Rating:
Summary: See my review for the first book!
Review: Like the title says, read my review for the first book for more information, but this book picks up right where the first one left off. Great read!
