Looking for something from Disney that’s a bit more than just a retelling of a movie story? This book draws on “Frozen” to provide character lessons about leadership.

Key images from the movie accompany the text, providing an overview of the story. Although this is cataloged as non-fiction, youngsters will most likely search for it in the picture book section. 

Includes sidebar features: Career Connection (doctor, park ranger); Did You Know (details about the film); and Character Callout (responsibility, creativity), as well as a glossary and list of books and websites. Readers are also challenged to think of ways they can be a leader.

Teamwork, responsibility, respect, grit, and confidence are other traits in this ‘Disney Great Character Guides’ series. This hardcover edition and demand for Disney/Frozen books rule in favor of purchase.
