Book Reviews of The Annotated Wizard of Oz (Centennial Edition)

Book Review: a classical. Every house should have one
Summary: 4 Stars

Though not that well written, and though both characters and plot are rather two dimensional and simple, this is one of the best. Baum's world is rich and interesting, and the adventures in this book are interesting, though not very suspending. It's sort of an essence of fantasy, chiefly. If you want to write, you should read this to "learn some of the principles". At any rate, it's something that can always lift your spirit and get you smiling and all.
