Award-Winning
Authors Offer Travel Advice for Dozens of Unique Needs

Ann Arbor,
MI (Sept. 6, 2007) — How do you plan a magical Disney vacation when you
have trouble walking around, food allergies, or are traveling with an
infant or a senior? Do you know the best hotel to accommodate your unique
needs? How can you request special assistance touring the parks or dining?
The answers to all these questions — and thousands more — are detailed
in the new PassPorter's Open Mouse for Walt Disney World and the Disney
Cruise Line guidebook (ISBN: 978-1-58771-048-3, 448 pages, trade paperback,
$22.95) by AllEarsNet editors Deb Wills and Debra Martin Koma.

PassPorter's
Open Mouse for Walt Disney World and the Disney Cruise Line opens
the door to Disney World for everyone! With more than 440 pages
of in-depth information for vacationers of all abilities, this guidebook
offers coverage of every ride, attraction and resort on Walt Disney World
property from a distinctive "extra challenges" perspective.
Edited by bestselling PassPorter author Jennifer Marx and peer reviewed
by more than 30 vacationers with a variety of unique needs, this book
is the second edition of the multiple award-winning PassPorter's Walt
Disney World For Your Special Needs guidebook. Authors Deb Wills and Debra
Martin Koma received a Benjamin Franklin Award and a ForeWord Magazine
Book of the Year award for their work on the first edition.

Bob Sehlinger,
author of the bestselling Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World, says
PassPorter's Open Mouse is "the ultimate sourcebook for Disney World
visitors with unique problems and needs. Well organized and crisply written,
the comprehensive volume covers everything from the needs of nursing mothers
to disabled access to autism. Almost anyone with a special need will find
both understanding and excellent advice between the covers of this landmark
work."

Consider
the typical multi-generational family planning a vacation–pregnant and
nursing moms, parents with infants, cousins "keeping Kosher"
or Halal, grandparents with declining mobility, a child with food allergies,
an uncle struggling with obesity, a teenaged daughter recently "converted"
to vegetarianism… everyday people coping with everyday needs. Walt Disney
World does more to accommodate their many needs than nearly anyplace else,
and PassPorter's Open Mouse tells you how.

This completely
updated edition offers coverage of 24 special challenge categories, embracing
dietary choices and hundreds of medical and mental health issues. The
authors provide comprehensive information on Disney resort hotels and
thorough evaluations of every Disney ride and attraction with a focus
on special challenges. In addition, dozens of travelers with unique needs,
including special diets, provide numerous tales, coping strategies, and
insider tips. Profiles of travelers with specific challenges give added
insight to what makes Walt Disney World such an "open" vacation
spot. PassPorter's Open Mouse offers everything you need to enjoy Disney
to the fullest, from some of the most trusted names in Disney travel.
