Disney 100 Advent Calendar a Storybook Library: Countdown to Christmas with 24 Exciting Storybooks

Every year, we do advent calendars to count down to Christmas. While this does not at all fit the liturgical calendar, we love reading a new story each night at bedtime. They are short, cute and fun, usually with happy endings, lessons about giving or friendship, or plain joyful romps of the season. Really fun way to count down to Christmas and read together as a family. 7yo loves finding the numbers each day.

This is a terrific Advent calendar for children 4-10. Younger ones will have to have the books read to them. It will last many years- sturdily made. Be aware it is quite large, like many other Advent calendars that have building sets in them. It is relatively flat, however. I think my 7 & 3 year old grandsons will enjoy it.

Everyday leading up to Christmas you get to open a new story book to read that night. 24 little books. Each one a Disney story. Gave these to multiple children from ages 2 to 7 and they all liked them. You can either read it to the little ones or have the older ones read it themselves. Stories aren't too long. Nice colorful pictures in the Disney tradition. Very happy with this purchase.

We took our grandson to Disney for his very first vacation this year. He met several of the characters so the timing of giving him the books was perfect.

The media could not be loaded. This advent calendar is very cute! It is a lot bigger than I expected, which is nice. The advent book itself is 21.25 inches tall and 14 inches wide and the books are 4.75 inches tall and 3.9 inches wide. The advent book seems very sturdy. There is a small flaw in the fold of the book, which really isn’t a big deal as it doesn’t affect the functionality of the book and is barely noticeable. The story books themselves are longer stories than I expected which I am happy about. They are a little delicate and won’t last with little kids. The only aspect that is disappointing is that there is a focus more of the classics for example: Dumbo, Pinocchio, 101 Dalmatians, Winnie the Pooh, Robin Hood and more. My kids don’t even know some of the characters. They could have had a book for Beauty and the Beast story, Tangled, Frozen, Luca and more.

We’ve bought the mini book advent calendar for a couple of years and our kids love them! Each night they take turns picking one book and we read it together as a family before bed. Planning on buying another one this year too!

I ordered this for my 2 young nieces to start on December 1st. The older one is a good reader and her mom said she will enjoy reading to her sister everyday. I liked this since it has books instead of food and/or just toys. I sent it directly to their home so didn't get to physically see, but their mom sent a picture of the calendar and it looks really nice and well made.

Bought for a friend who's nuts for all things Disney so I'm not sure what she'll think but from the outside it's very impressive. I showed it to a friend whose kids are 11 & 7, and she said they were likely too old for the books. She too only looked at the outside too as it's shrink-wrapped.
