My kids are 9 and 12, I wonder if the "Guide to the Magic" book is too young for them? It looks similar to a Birnbaums or something, which we already have (DIsneyworld for Kids by Kids).
 
YES! My boys LOVE it. They are younger, 7 and 8, and I tink they got it last year or 2 years ago. I debated getting them a new one for this upcoming trip since they ride so much more now. They loved marking the rides they like, and reading all the information. It is a very well done book.
 
They should have a new one for 2012, right?

I can't recommend this book enough. I was also uncertain as to whether to get it for my 8 year old last year, in case she was too old for it, but ordered one anyway.

The great thing is it has so many colorful illustrations and plenty going on for little ones - but the older kids with established reading skills get even more from it.

It is so worth the money. My DD is 9 in a few weeks and has asked for another one to take with us on the next trip.

Oh and if you have questions, customer care is unbeatable! I promise I am not getting commission :rotfl: but I feel it is worthy of the compliments

ETA: Have you been onto the website? You can view sample pages on there too.
 

I'd imagine it (or something similar) would make a good distraction on a five-hour flight.
 
We did not use our book for autographs. The book is very big and heavy, so we didn't want to carry it around the parks with us. The book is fantastic! The photos and descriptions are wonderful. I did bring the book on our last trip. Each ride has a section where you can rate the ride and write something about it that you liked. I wrote in the book with DS on our down time at the resort. DS was 4 at the time and it is funny to go back and read his thoughts on the rides. We still like to periodically go through the book and talk about our past trips. I highly recommend getting this book for your kids.
 
I just received an email to buy this book and couldn't decide. I'm so glad that somebody asked the question and everybody responded so favorable. I am going to order it today for my 7 year old.
thanks
 
My 10 year old loves writing things down in Journals. I just ordered the newest addition for our upcoming trip in October. It looked perfect.
 
It comes with a separate autograph book.

The website says that the autograph book is a separate purchase. Mine did not come with a separate autograph book. The book did have autograph pages in the back which we did not use. Is there a special deal that is not shown on the website?
