Eighth-grader (yes, eighth-grader) Matthew Creed has visited Walt Disney World dozens of times, and his favorite experience isn't a ride or a show, it's the details embedded throughout the parks. His book of quizzes challenges you to find what most guests overlook.
The 550 quiz questions in this book span the parks, resorts, and restaurants of Disney World. Each one starts with "Where in the World..." and then gives you just enough of a clue to figure out the answer—maybe.
Although Where in the World? is for all ages, kids, in particular, will enjoy learning more about the most magical place on earth in a fun way, as the answer to each question is packed with trivia!
WHERE IN THE WORLD IS DISNEY'S COOLEST NEW QUIZ BOOK? RIGHT HERE!
Ever since my first visit to Walt Disney World when I was no older than three months, I have been fascinated. They spare no expense to make the place one of the best vacation destinations in the world. I guess that is why I have been 25 times.
In most of my family’s trips, we spend a lot of time at the parks. They are on the run the entire trip because of me, as I cannot wait to become immersed in new Disney experiences.
As we spend time in the parks, hotels, pool, and elsewhere, I try to notice every detail in every nook and cranny. If I spot something, I want to talk about it, which bores my sister pretty quickly. However, to me, that’s what Disney does. They take the time to do the details, and never overlook anything.
In 25 trips to Disney World before I reached the age of 14, it has never gotten old.
As you master the quizzes in this book, take note of some of the things that you have never heard of or seen before, and keep a keen eye out for them during your next trip.
Matthew Creed loves Walt Disney World and everything with Disney in it. He is currently an 8th grade student in Rutland, Vermont. Over his lifetime, 14 years in total, he has visited Walt Disney World over two dozen times. Loving the idea of being an Imagineer and wanting to be one for the longest time, he began reading lots of books on hidden Disney magic and the details left by the Imagineers as a way of adding another layer of “magic” to the experience.
On the Christmas after his 25th visit to Walt Disney World, one of the gifts under his tree was an assortment of Disney books. This is what sparked in him the idea to write a book of his own.
Try your luck with ten randomly chosen questions from the 550 questions in the book:

We're always in the market for new authors with great ideas. Or great authors with new ideas. Whichever type of author you are, we'd be happy to discuss your book. Before you contact us, however, please make sure you can answer "yes" to these threshold questions:
We specialize in books that have some connection to Disney or theme parks. Disney, of course, has become a broad topic, and encompasses not just theme parks and films but comic books, animation, and a big chunk of pop culture. Your book should fit into one (or more) of those broad categories.
There's never a guarantee that any book will make money, but certain types of books are less likely to do so than others. They include: hardcovers, books with color photos, and books that go on forever ("forever" as in 400+ pages). We won't automatically turn down these types of books, but you'll have to be a really good salesman to convince us.
Writing books and publishing books should be fun. The last thing you want, and the last thing we want, is a contentious relationship. We work with authors who share our philosophy of no drama and zero attitude, and the desire for a respectful, realistic, mutually beneficial partnership.
If you said "yes" three times, please step inside.
