Disney’s marketing team are masters of the cross-promotion, so it shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise that they are increasing the presence of “The Jungle Book” in their parks this summer. Today, they announced a new show “The Jungle Book: Alive With Magic,” as well as, character meet and greets with Baloo and King Louie. All of this will take place at Disney World’s Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
