‘Tis the season to be giving! This is one of the most wonderful times of the year when people give back to those less fortunate and Disney has found an extremely easy way for all of us to donate to a non-profit. For every book purchased on shopDisney.com now through December 31, 2021, Disney will donate a book to First Book,
a non-profit organization dedicated to providing new books and educational resources to educators who serve children in need. Books are so wonderful and it’s great for children to start reading early so they can come to appreciate the value a book gives no matter what genre it is.
If you’re interested in taking part in this wonderful idea whether it’s for a holiday gift or just to buy books, here’s a list of some top favorite books available now on shopDisney!
Percy Jackson & the Olympians Book One: The Lightning Thief – The Graphic Novel
I personally LOVE this series and think it’s a great read for kids. The movies were great, and so naturally the books are way better! Highly recommend!
Mythological monsters and the gods of Mount Olympus seem to be walking out of the pages of 12-year-old Percy Jackson’s textbooks and into his life. And worse, he’s angered a few of them. Zeus’s master lightning bolt has been stolen, and Percy is the prime suspect. Now, he and his friends have just 10 days to find and return Zeus’s stolen property and bring peace to a warring Mount Olympus.Â
Soul Read-Along Storybook and CD
When I was kid I loved, loved, loved the read-along cassette tapes and books. I loved the chime to turn the page and follow along with the voice reading the story to me. Now of course these come with CDs and this is a great way to engage kids with reading!
Readers can turn the pages at the sound of the chime and follow along with the word-for-word narration with this Soul Read-Along Storybook and CD. The latest Disney and Pixar adventure takes you on a journey from the streets of New York City to the cosmic realms to discover the answers to life’s most important questions.

The Hidden Mickeys of Walt Disney World Book
Part of the fun of going to Walt Disney World is trying to find hidden Mickey’s on all the rides and around the parks. This is a fun book for families to read about where all the hidden Mickey’s are at so everyone can keep an eye out for them next time they are in the parks!
Walt Disney World Guests with keen eyes know that Mickey’s icon pops up all over the resort, often in the most unexpected places. With this resort-wide guide, you’ll be directed toward many hidden Mickeys. Can you find them all?
Star Wars the High Republic: Light of the Jedi Book
Star Wars is a huge hit for kids on screen and they are just as much of a hit in book form!
Star Wars the High Republic: Light of the Jedi is the lead book in an exciting cross-publishing event, exploring a new era of Star Wars storytelling: the never-before-seen in any medium High Republic. Centuries before the Skywalker Saga, the Republic’s golden age is disrupted by a catastrophic hyperspace disaster. The heroes of the Jedi Order meet the crisis head-on—but soon discover that the danger is far from over, and a sinister force threatens the galaxy they are sworn to defend.
Explorer Academy: The Nebula Secret Book – Paperback Edition – National Geographic
This series is extremely popular with young readers, so this is a great book to introduce to those who haven’t read any of them yet! The magic is all in the details in this adventurous book!
Cruz leaves his tranquil home in Hawaii to join 23 talented kids from around the globe to train at the Explorer Academy with the world’s leading scientists to become the next generation of great explorers. But for Cruz, there’s more at stake. No sooner has he arrived at the Academy than he discovers that his family has a mysterious past with the organization that could jeopardize his future. In the midst of codebreaking and cool classes, new friends and augmented reality expeditions, Cruz must tackle the biggest question of all: who is out to get him, and why? Readers can get in on the excitement with puzzles and codes embedded throughout.
Part of Your World: A Twisted Tale Book
I personally love this author. Liz Braswell has taken many villains and given them their own backstories. These books are really detailed and super easy for kids to understand and follow along.
What if Ariel had never defeated Ursula? It’s been five years since the infamous sea witch defeated the little mermaid… and took King Triton’s life in the process. Ariel is now the voiceless queen of Atlantica, while Ursula runs Prince Eric’s kingdom on land. But when Ariel discovers that her father might still be alive, she finds herself returning to a world – and a prince – she never imagined she would see again.
