bakerage 's review for:

The Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum
4.0

Second time reading this book. First time was to my nephews in 2008. Now It was to my own children. This book holds many warm, cozy memories with children that I adore. Not easy to write a non-biased review considering the context.
I think that this book offers a simple story, I like that the adventures have an amount of thrill easy to engage without becoming overwhelming.
It should be more 3 1/2 stars but because of the warm memories of reading aloud to my children and my nephews before, I will give it a little more.
One of my favorite quotes: “I shall take the heart, returned the Tin Woodman, for brains do not make one happy, and happiness is the best thing in the world?”
