OF MICE AND MAGIC
If you are interested in purchasing Leonard Maltin's essential animation history, Of Mice And Magic, make sure you order the one pictured above left. I've gotten several letters recently from readers who have made the mistake, when ordering through Amazon, of ordering the book on the right. I suppose it was bound to happen. While both books have in common several distinct talking mice, clearly David Farland's fantasy novel, published in 2005, should not be confused with Maltin's award winning non fiction history of Hollywood cartoons.
While I'm at it, neither book should be confused with the Herman & Katnip cartoon of the same name.
