| Walt Disney died in 1966, but hid work and his dreams did not die. A new generation of children watched his animal movies such as Snow White and even his old Mickey Mouse cartoons. These are the sane Disney creations the parents and grandparents of these children enjoyed. Millions of people also came to the United states to enjoy Disneyland in California and Disney World. But although Disney’s work was extraordinary, in many ways Walt Disney was an ordinary man. He was born in Chicago and had a rather typical childhood in the Midwest . his family was not rich or successful. In fact, his father failed in business several times. Walt had to work hard, but he did not mind. He did not mind hard work, and he did not give up easily. One summer Walt wanted a fob at the post office, but they told him he was too young. He went hone, drew some lines on his face, and put on his father’s suit and hat. Then he went back to the sane office and told them he was 18. They gave him the job. Later in his life, Disney had ma dream. He wanted to build a new kind of amusement park. It would be clean and beautiful. There would be rides for children and nice restaurants for adults. It would be fun for people of all ages. Disney drew a plan for this park. It was called Disneyland. Engineers told him it was an impossible dream.
