ParksWalt Disney wanted to create a safe place for kids to go and play. He tried many ideas but didn't have the money.He tried signing with a few companys and they said no. therefore he signed with ABC and sold comics to get the amount of money needed to build the park
Animation Walt Disney started his animation career with Oswald the lucky Rabbit. He soon lost the rights to this character to universal studios. He later made a similar piece but using a mouse in stead. This is how Mickey Mouse was made.
