About This Episode

Have you ever wondered where the magic comes from? We're talking about Walt Disney, the genius who gave the world Mickey Mouse, Cinderella's castle, and the happiest place on Earth! But guess what? He wasn't born a prince, and he didn't live in a magic kingdom growing up. Get ready for a huge surprise!

Join Mira and Finn as they uncover the true, gasp-worthy story of Walter Elias Disney. He started life as a regular kid in Chicago and spent time doing chores on a farm—definitely not drawing talking mice! Discover the dramatic journey of how a regular kid, obsessed with drawing funny pictures, faced HUGE challenges, never gave up, and eventually built an empire based purely on imagination. Learn how his early years prepared him for the incredible success—and failures—that paved the way for the world’s most magical places. It’s a spectacular episode full of dreams, doodles, and dedication!
