Ridley Pearson Latest Disney Books 2010 by Himself




Kingdom Keepers III - Book 3 in the Kingdom Keepers series, Disney in Shadow, takes us behind the scenes at Epcot. Disney Imagineer Wayne, the Keepers' mentor, and creator of Disney Holographic Imaging (DHI) has gone missing. Has he been abducted? Suspected are the evil Overtakers (Disney villains), including the devious Maleficent. When the turnstiles stop spinning at the Parks is when the real Rush begins. Get ready for the ride of your life!

Peter Pan, the Lost Boys, and Captain Hook have been some of the world's most storied characters since J.M. Barrie introduced them in his beloved tale, Peter Pan. In this new picture book, Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson take a fresh look at these characters as only they can. Created for the animated film, Mary Blair's illustrations helped to define the look of this Walt Disney classic and bring all the magic of Never Land to life—from the ominous Skull Rock to Peter's secret underground lair.

Sword of Mercy: The fourth title in the Peter and the Starcatchers series (originally planned as a trilogy of prequels to Barrie's classic Peter Pan), this adventure involves a magical sword once wielded by Charlemagne and now held by the forces of evil as they attempt to seize a cache of starstuff, the powerful substance that the Starcatchers must protect. Wendy steps into her mother's shoes as the story's heroine, while the action zigzags from one set of characters and locales to another. Full of narrow escapes from nasty villains and bits of humor, this fast-paced adventure delivers plenty of thrills.
