I Love Disneyland Is the Perfect Book for Disney Fans

Some things you may not have known about Disneyland include the revelation that Doritos were invented there, that Candy Palace on Main Street U.S.A. pumps sweet scents into the air to draw guests into the shop, and that the audio-animatronic dolls from It’s A Small World ride get annual haircuts. This is just a small portion of the facts you can find in I Love Disneyland.

It’s the 70th anniversary of the Happiest Place on Earth, and Ry and Skyla Castles are banking on fans wanting to collect every bit of Disney-celebratory content as possible. Instead of just sharing their Disney knowledge with their followers on social media, they’ve collected it all into this book. They also provide a comprehensive look at Disneyland’s favorite rides, attractions, and foodie must-haves. 

Some questions that readers can expect to learn the answers to include:

• How did the Dole Whip come to be?
• Where can you find the most exclusive, members-only bar and restaurant at Disneyland?
• Which restaurant serves one of Walt’s favorite dishes (made from a recipe provided by his daughter)?
• And much more!

ComicBook recently compiled a list of all the rides and attractions coming to Disneyland for its 70th anniversary. There’s definitely something for fans of all ages, with a lot geared towards the 70-year celebration. The “It’s a Small World” attraction is adding Miguel and his alebrije companion, Dante, from Disney and Pixar’s Coco; the esplanade between Disneyland and Disney California Adventure is showcasing a 50-foot contemporary sculpture inspired by Sleeping Beauty Castle; and over 70 new and returning food and beverage items will be introduced across the resort.
