From Library Journal:
Howard Johnson and Walt Disney are both speeding toward Orlando to establish magic kingdoms, one restful, one frenetic. Margery Post Merriweather is already ensconced there, comfortably dreaming of her lost love Clarence Birdseye, and she doesn't need their companies. In Florida lurks Bones Jones, waiting to take out Disney, whom he blames for his own unanimated career. The showdown between Disney's rioting children and Margery's electric fence is a shocker. This "kindly satiric" fable about American prophets and profits, Apple's fourth book about pop culture, will amuse readers who can fancy Walt Disney a villain.Maurice Taylor, Brunswick Cty. Lib., Southport, N.C.
