Upon re-reading this, I was honestly surprised by how clever some of L. Frank Baum's writing is. There was depth to the characters that I didn't expect, and I appreciated the idea that all of them had what they needed but simply couldn't believe it about themselves.
There were also a lot more decapitations than I remembered.

If you can find a copy with the original art, it is pretty amazing.

Li este livro com as minhas filhas, um capítulo por noite, ao longo de várias semanas. Foi uma boa leitura. Não conhecia a história toda e achei muito interessante o ensinamento oculto: às vezes, andamos à procura daquilo que já temos, mas não sabemos que temos.

I didn't expect to like this better than the classic movie, but this was actually funny. And it was written over a hundred years ago. I don't usually go for stuff that old, but Baum knew what he was doing. This also reads so much like a classic JRPG that I had to go google if there was a Wizard of Oz JRPG out there...and there actually is, for the Nintendo DS. I'm sure nobody actually bought it.
The scarecrow was my favorite in this version. I also liked how short it is, despite its page count. I could probably whip through this whole series in a week if I set my mind to it!
