I think Sleeping Beauty is my absolute favorite. It’s so ostentatious, it’s so grand and in your face— I love it. I’d buy a replica if I could think of a use for it!
Generally, I like the live-action ones the best. I think Snow White’s is really pretty with the crème and gold touches. I haven’t watched The Sword in the Stone in years but that book looks really nice! I like Cinderella’s a lot, too. Soft spot for the Pooh book— I love how meta that movie is, it’s really the only one of these films where the framing device actually matters.
I’d love to see some of these books on display. I wonder if they are ever exhibited anywhere, perhaps at the Walt Disney Family Museum?
EDIT: They do go on display! According to this article from D23, some of them (including Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, and Snow White) were touring Japan in 2017!

The books featured in the classic movies felt like really old tomes, like the story you were being told was very old and of great importance. A pop up book doesn’t carry the same heft!
