The House of Mouse

When you think of Florida, it's hard to escape associations of beaches, alligators, Florida Man, and of course Disney. Disney has become this behemoth of a company, and it all started with a little mouse named Mickey. I know it actually started with a rabbit named Oswald, but guess what? It's not his birthday. Yes, in case you didn't know, Mickey's birthday is November 18 - the same day that Steamboat Willie debuted 92 years ago. Since then, Disney has revolutionized animation and touched generations with the stories they tell. So let's celebrate by reading or watching the mouse that started it all.
