This really reminded me of Alice in Wonderland quite a bit, with allegorical stories woven throughout. It is interesting how different the movie is from the book, with changes in flow and characters

Having just listened to Wicked, I thought I would revisit the original Wonderful Wizard of Oz. There was a lot I didn't remember - perhaps because I only really remember the movie! Definitely having just listened to Wicked changed the entire dynamic of the book. I definitely would recommend reading the original again around the same time as Wicked to try to find the connections and draw your own conclusions. That probably made my rating a bit harsh this time around as I was trying to square the circle between the two works.
There was a lot more beheadings than I remembered....
This audiobook version was excellent and the narrator did a wonderful job w all of the different characters.

Book Review: The Wonderful Wizard of Oz 🌈✨
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5)
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5)
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is a magical journey that never gets old. Dorothy and her companions each face challenges, only to realize the qualities they’ve been searching for were within them all along. 💖 I love that moment when they finally see they had courage, a brain, and a heart all along. It’s such a beautiful reminder that what we seek is often already inside us. 🌟
This is a great read for anyone looking for adventure, magic, and a little self-discovery. Definitely a classic worth picking up!

I read this book once before, but I decided to listen to the audiobook to read it again.
The book is good, but this is one of the only instances where I think that the movie is better than the book.
