Walt Disney22

            When I was growing up I loved to watch cartoons.
             myself asking one question, who draws these amazing characters? My favorite .
             cartoons were Disney cartoons. Walt Disney was the best at what he did. His .
             early life and family helped him become the genius he was. Walt Disney was a .
             cartoonist and master of motion picture animation. He made the world fall in .
             love with a large-eared mouse, a scheming duck, and dozens of other animal .
             characters. As his career progressed he turned the making of full length .
             animated films into an art form. Walt Disney lived on the edge of tomorrow but .
             he dared to make his dreams come true. .
             Walt Disney was born on December 5, 1901 into a modest Chicago .
             household. His first name was taken from the congregational minister who .
             baptized him, his middle name was Elias after his father. Walt Disney's father .
             Elias Disney was a Canadian and of Anglo-Irish decent. Elias Disney had many .
             different jobs through his life. Disney's mother Flora Disney was a lively, .
             even tempered women. She would read the children stories and play games with .
             them. She cooked, cleaned, and made butter which she sold in town. Walt Disney .
             was the fourth of five children. He had three brothers, Hebert, Raymond, Roy, .
             and a younger sister, Ruth. In 1906 the Disney family moved to a farm in .
             Marline, Missouri. On the farm Walt Disney would take care of the animals, .
             like chickens, pigeons, ducks, and pigs. He liked to work, even though caring .
             for the animals was a big job for a boy at his age. He named all the animals .
             and he would draw animals on the farm and the fields around it. There was no .
             paper to spare in his household, so he sketched animals on toilet paper and .
             wrapping paper. Relatives admired Walt's drawings and his Aunt Margaret sent .
             him drawing materials to him from Kansas City. Elias Disney was a hardworking .
             man, a believer in physical punishment, and harsh economic discipline. The .
             children received no allowances and no playthings.
