It's interesting watching this. It feels like several movies combined into one. The movie starts out in black in white only to go into color for a time before going back to black and white. The story's about Robert Benchley trying to sell the rights of the titular book to Walt Disney Studios at the advice of his wife. As he tries to sell the rights of the book he also tours the studio where he and the viewer see how cartoons were made at the time. It shows Clarence Nash performing his Donald Duck voice even teaching him how to do it as well as the animators working on future Disney movies such as Dumbo as well as 4 shorts including the titular one.
The movie's more of a mockumentary and as is it's interesting. Some of the jokes are dated but the animation's amazing. The color added to the film gives it new life which's cool. Too bad it never stays that way. The short itself is ok. It may not be a classic but as is, it's interesting to watch and if you like some of Disney's obscure movies i'd say check it out.
