Walt Disney

     When Walt Disney was a little boy, he did not have any toys.  His father would not let him.  If his father caught him playing with the toys of his friends, his father would beat him.  Walt's father did not believe in playing or having fun.  He only believed in work.

     After a while, Walt and his family moved to a farm.  Walt quickly made friends with the farm animals.  They were like toys to him. One day, he found some tar.  He took it and started drawing pictures of his animal friends on the side of the barn.  When his dad found the pictures, he gave Walt a beating.

     His father could not stop Walt's love of drawing pictures.  When Walt grew up and moved away, he started drawing all the time.  He drew cartoons.  Then he made movies like Snow White and Bambi.  People loved his movies. He won many awards for them.  Even though they were made a long time ago, people still love them.  In the end, Walt was able to make himself happy.  And he made a lot of other people happy too.
