Walt Disney: The Triumph of the American Imagination, Hörbuch, Digital, 610min
Seven years in the making and meticulously researched Gabler is the first writer to be given complete access to the Disney archives this is the full story of a man whose work left an ineradicable brand on our culture but whose life has largely been enshrouded in myth.Gabler shows us the young Walt Disney breaking free of a heartland childhood of discipline and deprivation and making his way to Hollywood. We see the visionary, whose desire for escape honed an innate sense of what people wanted to see on the screen and, when combined with iron determination and obsessive perfectionism, led him to the reinvention of animation. It was Disney, first with Mickey Mouse and then with his feature films most notably Snow White, Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo, and Bambi who transformed animation from a novelty based on movement to an art form that presented an illusion of life.The author also reveals a wounded, lonely, and often disappointed man, who, despite worldwide success, was plagued with financial problems, suffered a nervous breakdown, and at times retreated into pitiable seclusion in his workshop, making model trains. Gabler explores accusations that Disney was a red-baiter, an anti-Semite, and an embittered alcoholic. Yet whatever his personal failings, Disney appealed to millions by demonstrating the power of wish fulfillment and the triumph of the American imagination. Language: English.

Bruins' Peak Bears Box Set (Volume II) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1242min
The second installment of the Bruins' Peak Bears stories. Audiobooks six to 10! Can be listened to as a stand-alone, but I recommend listening to audiobooks zero through five first. Audiobook six: Melody It’s the biggest wedding in Bruin history as Marla Dunlap and Walker Cunningham tie the knot, but Fate determines a different outcome than everyone expects. Right before the ceremony, the three young Dunlap boys catch a black panther in the woods on Bruins’ Peak. They drag it back to Dunlap Homestead and lock it in the basement. At the last second, right before Marla and Walker head down the aisle, the panther shifts into a young man. Marla recognizes Riley Faulkner, the bear-baiter who kidnapped and almost killed her. Melody Mackenzie finds herself caught in a tangled web of politics, danger, and intrigue. Riley is an enemy of her people: dangerous, calculating, profiteering for Bruin lives. How can she stand to get near him with Walker howling for Riley’s blood? Against her will, she falls under his hypnotic spell. His pitch black soul radiates power, sexual energy, and everything forbidden. Melody ought to kill him right now, but her Destiny decrees her future lies with him. Must Melody turn against all her family and friends to find her heart’s true mate? How can she survive being torn away from Bruins’ Peak? How can she live without the love of her life? Audiobook seven: Briar What happened to Riskin Dodd after Mattox Farrell defeated him in an Alpha challenge? Where did Riskin go when Mattox drove him away, bleeding and crippled? What became of Riskin after Lyric Mackenzie broke his heart to marry Mattox? Briar MacAllister hasn’t been the same since Melody Mackenzie ran away from Marla Dunlap’s wedding to join the Midnight panther shifters. Briar cherished the same romantic notions about finding her one true mate. After the Melody disaster, Briar’s not so sure anymore. All that ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Matt Standley.
