Disney A to Z

I have numerous 2nd and even 3rd edition books in my collection in addition to the original 1st editions. Quite often these later editions just contain new covers, corrections of some typos or some pictures are swapped out. This is probably the reason I've been dragging my feet on purchasing the 3rd edition of Dave Smith's Disney A to Z.

The 1st edition of Disney A to Z is usually my "go-to" book when I need to look something up. And, to-date, it has not failed me. On a recent trip to Disneyland, I noticed a copy of the 3rd ed. and couldn't help noticing the size difference between the two books. According to the inside flap it contains "almost 1000 new entries and more than 1,250 changes to existing entries." And a quick check of the page count has the 1st edition coming in at 564 pages while the 3rd is up to a whopping 764 pages.

Maybe I won't be so quick to judge later editions.
