A review by ens
The Patchwork Girl of Oz by L. Frank Baum

The poetry in this book was a bit annoying. Hearing about the Oz justice system was a highlight though.

Spoiler

I'm kind of annoyed about that ending. They spend the whole book looking for materials for this antidote, and then it turns out not to matter at all? Presumably we could've stopped the quest halfway through and just had Ozma turn the statues back to life with her magic belt.
