M. Keith Booker is the James E. and Ellen Wadley Roper Professor of English and director of the program in Comparative Literature and Cultural Studies at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville.

Booker (English, U. of Arkansas, Fayetteville) examines dozens of films from Disney, Pixar, DreamWorks, and other studios, from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) to Up (2009), in an analysis of the underlying political and cultural messages of children's films. Contrary to claims that some children's films teach anti-American ideas, he finds that the vast majority tend to support mainstream American values, such as individualism, family, and capitalism. The text contains an alphabetical list of all films cited in the text, including the name of the film, the director, and year of release.
