Everybody loves cartoons, both children and adults. Each of us knows such cartoons as "Bears Gammy", "Chip and Dale", "Little Mermaid", "Duck stories", "Adventures of Mickey Mouse". These cartoon characters have become fond of many children, and were remembered for their kindness, bright colors and cheerful character. This wonderful and colorful world of fairy tales was presented to us by the great animator Walt Disney.

Later, together with his brother Roy, he founded the Disney Company, which became the leading producer of cartoons, films and children programs. The company has existed for 90 years, and is also involved in the opening of various attractions, water parks, and television companies. All the famous Disneyland - this is the next brainchild of Disney. This park attraction is represented by a magical city, with characters living in it from Disney cartoons. Once in this fabulous place, you will meet with ghosts, fight with pirates, find yourself in the jungle, drink a cup of tea with Snow White and become Mickey Mouse's best friend. Walt Disney has put his soul into this project, wanting to give joy and adventure to both children and adults.

The native city of Walt Disney became Chicago, where he was born on December 5, 1901. As a child, Walt had creative abilities. He liked to draw, and often sold his drawings to earn money and continue his artistic career. Years later, he went to Hollywood to try his luck, and he succeeded. In 1925 he married his collaborator Lillian Bons, and soon they had two daughters.

In 1932, Walt released the first color cartoon "Flowers and Trees," for which he received the Academy Award, and became a famous man in Hollywood. Then the first musical animated film "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" appeared. Walt has a lot of fine works on his shoulders, which he gave to small spectators. Thanks to Walt in 1962, color television appeared.

The great producer died of lung cancer in 1966 on December 15. After his death, a chain of shops began to sell toy characters from Walt Disney cartoons. Every year the variety of goods expanded, in stores you could buy clothes, shoes, dishes, school supplies with the Disney logo.
