What are the best Disney history books of 2012? This year's list is a long one (which is good news) and includes for the first time a book in Italian (although, had I been aware of it at the time, the book Eccetto Topolino by Fabio Gadducci, Leonardo Gori and Sergio Lama would have been part of my 2011 list).

Terrific list! I've read about all, and my fave is "It's Kind of a Cute Story." Rolly seems to have had a one-of-a-kind relationship with Walt Disney, on top of that Rolly's unique personality shines through in the book. My only complaint is I've of liked to have seen even more of Rolly's artwork.
Thank you!
I'm proud to be in the list, as co-writer of the first Italian Disney book in the list!
Ciao, Didier!

Great list. I have at least half of them now and can say they are incredible. Good to see an italian book in the list. Congrats Luca Boschi.
