If you want to read more of Mr. Maltin, boy oh boy do you have options. Leonard Maltin’s Movie Guide stop publishing in 2015, but here’s the final edition; even better, his publisher separated out the classics (pre-1965) for a stand-alone edition, titled Leonard Maltin’s Classic Movie Guide, and it is a must-have.

You should also read his wonderful memoir Starstruck: My Unlikely Road to Hollywood, which we mentioned on the show; other favorites that are readily and quickly available include Of Mice and Magic: A History of American Animated Cartoon, Leonard Maltin's 151 Best Movies You've Never Seen, The Great American Broadcast: A Celebration of Radio's Golden Age, and Hooked on Hollywood: Discoveries from a Lifetime of Film Fandom. And in 2015, he put out a revised edition of my beloved The Great Movie Comedians.
