A review by ashlurtis
Oz, the Complete Collection, Volume 1: The Wonderful Wizard of Oz/The Marvelous Land of Oz/Ozma of Oz by L. Frank Baum

4.0

I am quite fond of The Wizard of Oz and Return to Oz movies so this collection was really fun to read. The three stories in this first volume contain the characters and storylines found in those two films. There were moments I found myself laughing out loud at the absurdity of the characters/situations which is a welcome reprieve from the world right now and from what I usually read. I wasn’t expecting the books to be quite so juvenile, but it makes for a quick and entertaining read. I’m actually really looking forward to returning to Oz in the next four volumes to encounter stories and characters that I’m not yet familiar with!
