Which book is better Birnbaum or Bob Sehlinger? Or there a better book?

I love both books, but the Unofficial Guide is much more comprehensive. Birbaum's is good for something easy to take with on the trip and get at a glance.

I love the Unofficial Guide. It’s very thorough.

The Unofficial guide is the one to get if you're only getting one. The Birnbaum book is essentially a Disney press release with some nice photos.

Actually, the DIS Boards sister site wdwinfo.com is the best.

To piggy back off of this, Birnbaum's info is basically the same stuff you would find on Disney Worlds website. Birnbaums does have coupons though, so I would only advise purchasing it if their are some coupons you KNOW you will use, and the money you will save is greater than or equal to the price of the book.

Request both from your local library and compare.

Does anyone happen to know if a list of all Disney coupons in the 2019 Birnbaum's book is posted anywhere? My library's copies are checked out with waiting lists, and before I purchase one, I was just wondering what the coupons were/if it's worth buying. Thanks!
