Summary: This book continues where volume one leaves off. Goofy, Donald, and Sora are still in search of Mickey and Sora's friend. They all travel to Arabah, and try to help Aladdin save Jasmine. In this volume the disney princesses hold the power to unlock the final world. Maleficent has learned that she needs the princesses to cause harm from the rest of the worlds.

Personal reaction: The second book was a little easier to read, still a little difficult if you put it down and try to start up again. After reading these to books makes me interested in learning and reading other books.

Classrom extensions: 1. I would have the students write about what it would take if they took a journey to safe a princess.
2. I would have students discuss what it would be like to rescue a princess or prince.

Summary:

The villain, Maleficent has figured out that she needs the princesses to cause harm for the rest of the worlds.

Personal:

I love this series, and look forward to reading the second installment of them, Kingdom Hearts II. Reading these books has piqued my interest to play the games again.

Classroom:

1. There would be two parts to this assignment, for the girls, I would have them write about what it takes to be a princess, and what they would do if they were princesses. For the boys, I would have them write about their journey to save the princess and what happens once they did.
2. Drawing pictures opens up the students minds for the teacher. I would have them draw their interpretation of castles and both a king and a queen and brainstorm what they would do throughout the day if they were kings and queens.

I would have my class talk about the different Disney villains and draw a picture of their favorite villain.
2. I would have my students tell me by either pictures or story about what it would be like to rescue a princess. ( )
