Growing Up in Disneyland Second Edition is about movie and TV star Don DeFore and his son Ron's life in a celebrity family. Don DeFore earned a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame for his supporting role as “Thorny” in the Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet TV series (1952-1957) and played “Mr. B” in the 1960s TV series Hazel which is still in world-wide syndication on vintage TV channels and available on DVD. Don also co-starred in movies with stars like Spencer Tracy, John Wayne, Van Johnson, Rock Hudson, Ronald Reagan, Lucille Ball, Bob Hope, John Wayne, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis, Groucho Marx, Doris Day, Tony Curtis, and many others—all told in Don’s own words from his unpublished manuscript, Hollywood-DeFore and After.

He was subsequently voted to serve another term till 1956. This Second Edition has 25% more content than the first edition published in 2019 and more than 125 photos.
