FROM CALI TO THE CASTLE
For California girl Sara Lopes, it wasn't enough to walk down Walt Disney World's Main Street. She wanted to live there. She got her wish, for a little while, and her secret cast member diary takes you with her from Cali to Cinderella Castle.
What happens when a teenager leaves home for the first time, flies across the country, and moves into a Disney apartment with five other girls just as eager to join the Disney dream machine and learn how the magic works?
In Sara Earns Her Ears, you'll get as close to the Disney College Program as you possibly can without enrolling in it yourself. From application to interview, orientation to training, working on the job and playing in the parks, you'll experience the magic, and sometimes the not-so-magic, from the inside looking out.
Follow Sara as she:
- Answers Disney's interview questions perfectly, and then watches as all her friends get accepted first
- Endures long shifts, endless training, and battling guests at Capt.Cook's in the Polynesian Resort
- Participates in little-known Disney events like Dapper Day and Disneybound, and eats a lot of free pie
- Takes you backstage with her to cast member-only parties and events, a coronation, and the dreaded Disney inspections
- Shares advice, checklists, and helpful resources to get you started on your own quest to work for the Mouse
The end of Sara's college program in Walt Disney World took her from one theme park to another, as she followed her dream of full-time work at Disneyland. Did she make it? It's all in her secret cast member diary.
Sara Earns Her Ears is the third volume in the popular "Earning Your Ears" series. If you've never been in the Disney College Program, this is the next best thing!
