Hidden Mickey BookHidden Mickeys…Are you in the know?  Chances are good since you’re here at this website that you know a thing or two about hidden mickeys in the Disney parks.  I’m going to also venture to guess that you have heard of Steven Barrett, author of Hidden Mickeys: A Field Guide to Walt Disney World’s Best Kept Secrets.

This weekend I am going to have the privilege of spending some time with the man him himself, Mr. Steve Barrett.  CAUTION: Amanda is officially geeking out!!! Stand clear or you may get a smattering of pixie shrapnel.

If you don’t know who Steven is, or you have never heard of Hidden Mickeys, then head on over to HiddenMickeysGuide.com and do some investigating.

If you love looking for hiddden mickeys and have wanted to meet Steven Barrett and ask him some questions, now’s your chance.   I’m also going to stick with Disney Every Day tradition and make a fun contest out of it.  Here’s how it will work.  Post a questions that you would like for me to ask Steven in the comment section below. One luck entry will be chosen at random to receive an autographed 1st Edition of Mr. Barrett’s book Hidden Mickeys: A Field Guide to Walt Disney World’s Best Kept Secrets.  Submissions will be accepted through March 4th, 11:59 p.m. EST.

Well…whatcha waiting for?  Post a question for Steve below… GOOD LUCK! ºoº

BONUS!!!! Steve has just offered to ADD more to this fantastic giveaway!!!!  He’s throwing in a copy of Hidden Mickeys: A Field Guide to Walt Disney World’s Best Kept Secrets Edition Four, Disneyland’s Hidden Mickeys: A Field Guide to Disneyland Resort’s Best Kept Secrets and Hidden Mickeys Go To Sea: A Field Guide to the Disney Cruise Line’s Best Kept Secrets!!!!

    Great idea! I would love to know: “Steven, where is the most surprising place that you, or someone, has found a 'Hidden Mickey'?

  • heavensent30

    I'm in….please ask Steve…What got him started on the quest for Hidden Mickeys? Which one was his first?

  • Amy Christiansen

    Where is the least noticed, or most hidden, hidden mickey?

    Hi, Steve! How do you handle someone who is *SURE* he has found a hidden Mickey, but you (or your readers) think that it really isn't one? Is there a nice way to let the person down?

  • TheAngelForever

    Hi Steven, I would love to know what your favorite Hidden Mickey is and why? If that is too hard, how about favorite from each of the Disney Parks?

  • http://twitter.com/aryssabrooke Bluebonnets&Brownies

    Of the Hidden Mickeys that have gone away, which do you miss most? Mine would be a tie between the one underneath the Sorcerer's Hat at the Studios, and the one that was in the mural at Body Wars.

    Steven, if you could place your own hidden mickey anywhere on WDW property, where would you place it and why?

  • Candy Selby

    HI Steven ~ If you could have Walt Disney hide a HM anywhere at WDW or DL where do you think 'from Walt's perspective' would it be and why?

  • Linda Kocher

    Did you play hide and seek a lot as a child, or what got you into such a fun career?

  • sharlam

    Hi Steve! I love looking for Hidden Mickeys both on my own and with your book. What is the best way to note which ones I've found before without marking all over the book's pages?

  • http://webshots.com/user/ejud2001 Jud

    Ah! Here's a question! What somewhat renowned Disney fan took your picture with your book sticking out of your back pocket as we toured the mini-golf course at Give Kids the World? Hehehehee…

    What a great idea – and great gifts for the winner! How about this one: “Steven, if finding Hidden Mickeys were an Olympic event, which 3 countries do you think would reach the podium, and in what order?”

  • Molly

    What is the most obvious hidden Mickey that most people don't know about (because it's so obvious)?

  • BWVNUT

    Which hidden mickey is your favorite personal find?

  • http://twitter.com/Dizneydreamer Jennifer Meyering

    Is it possible for him to go to WDW and enjoy rides or does he always look for new Hidden Mickeys?

  • http://thedisneydrivenlife.com/ NDM1

    Alright, Tinney! Here's my two:

    1) Where is the highest Hidden Mickey that Steve knows of?
    2) Is he an official NDP yet (because his book is a critical part of The Disney Driven Life)?

  • http://twitter.com/imacdan Dan S

    Where is the most over looked hidden mickey? If you could a hidden mickey anywhere where would it be?

  • http://thedisneydrivenlife.com/ NDM1

    Alright, Amanda. I have two questions:
    1) Where is the highest Hidden Mickey located?
    2) Is Steve (whose book is a crucial part of The Disney Driven Life) an official NDP yet?

    Cool!

    Question: What is the largest “Hidden Mickey” you have encountered?

  • http://twitter.com/mouserrificmom Megan Sullivan

    Hey Steve…..I like finding hidden Mickey's in the most unusual and unexpected places (even unofficial ones, like the ones my kids draw!) But I am wondering what the most unusual and unexpected official one you have ever come across was….how big was it, what was it constructed of it, how well hidden is it, and perhaps most importantly, where is it?

  • Saron aka NDI 50

    Where is the oddest place for a HM?

  • Matt H

    Aside from the many Mickey Mouses, what are some of the most obscure charcters that are hidden?

  • Ed Ramirez

    What do you think Walt Disney would have thought about the whimsical nature of Hidden Mickeys? And, do you think he would have embraced them?

  • lacehaystack

    My idea of a hidden Mickey is the icon. We have also found some head to toe Mickeys and some silhouettes, Mr. Barrett, my question is, do you consider 'Donald', Goofy etc. part of the Hidden Mickeys? I see more sites and books that include these characters. IMHO it's all about the Mouse – what's your opinion? BTW we took your book with us to WDW in 2009 and played find Hidden Mickeys for 14 days -too fun!
