Il mago di Oz
Il mago di Oz | Lyman Frank Baum
Il meraviglioso Mago di Oz contiene tutti gli elementi utili per affascinare sia i bambini che gli adulti: avvincente per lo spirito di avventura, tenero per il sentimento di amicizia che lega i personaggi e divertente per le avventure che essi devono affrontare per raggiungere lo scopo. Lo scopo il denominatore comune che unisce i protagonisti della storia: la piccola Dorothy, insieme allo Spaventapasseri, al Taglialegna e al Leone, si ritrova nel meraviglioso Paese di Oz alla ricerca di qualcosa che possa renderla felice. Ma, come spesso accade, quello che si cerca insistentemente spesso lo si ha sotto gli occhi senza vederlo

Read this today.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My mom invited me to an escape room this weekend that's Oz themed (based on BOOK only), and she wants me to wear a costume. Told her I'd wear a gold cap (nothing to do with the movie, but if you read the book, it's 💯 percent understandable.) It wasn't exactly what I expected escape room wise, but I still enjoyed time with my fam. ❤️

This book has it wrong folks... Melting is caused by excessive heat. Like that which is going on in Canada right now😅💧💧💧

Every time I read this I realise how much the film misses (and how sanitised it is). Oz is such a weird place, and Dorothy and her comrades‘ journey is so action-packed. A story that truly draws on the power of imagination to transport us to another world. I‘ve only just realised that this is the beginning of a quite lengthy series of books, so cue me reading more Oz tales (which I can only assume are weirder than this).

AshleyHoss820 I read the Oz books to my kiddos when they were small! We loved the zany characters! There‘s an old (1985) Disney version of Return to Oz that is perhaps closer to the original vision. Have fun reading these together! ☺️ 5mo

“Where in the world did you come from?”
“From the land of Oz,” said Dorothy gravely. “And here is Toto, too. And oh, Aunt Em! I‘m so glad to be at home again!”

#OminousOctober #Day5 #Candy I couldn‘t find my copy of The Sugar Queen(candy on its cover)and I tore apart my library! So you get the Lollipop Guild instead from Munchkin Land in Oz. I loved these books as a kid, read them over & over when I could find copies in my local library, so I just had to buy the hardcover boxed set a few years ago. Which Oz book is your favourite? 🍭👧🏻🐶🌪 #Scarathlon #TeamSlaughter 6pts

This one has to be The Wizard Of Oz! I was obsessed with these books when I was in primary school, I haunted our local library for each book in the series. Though this one wasn‘t my favourite from it, TikTok of Oz & Ozma Of Oz have that spot, they wouldn‘t have existed without this first story. I have a beautiful bound set I‘m hoping to read with my grandbabies soon.

#SeriesRead2022 @TheSpineView

I decided to finally read this entire series so I started with a reread of the first book. It's the only book in the series that I've read, but I'm a huge fan of all things Oz related.

My journey down the yellow brick road was just as enjoyable as my first trip with the band of misfits. I love the friendship that develops and how each character learns to believe in themselves, with a little help of course. 😁

TheSpineView Fantastic! 2y

#OnThisDay in 1900 L. Frank Baum introduced the magical world of Oz to the masses with the publication of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. The name Oz came from a filing cabinet - Baum couldn't come up with a name for his magical world and looked around the room for inspiration, until his eyes landed on a drawer marked "O to Z". (Cont'd in comments) #HistoryGetsLIT

TheKidUpstairs There were many changes made for the iconic movie adaptation, many for visual impact in the new technicolor film. Does anyone know what colour Dorothy's shoes were in Baum's original tale? 3y
Aims42 @TheKidUpstairs I think they were silver? 3y
TheKidUpstairs @Aims42 that's right! Changed to ruby red to stand out in technicolor. 3y

I had no idea this book was so different from the movie based on it. I have fond memories of the movie, mostly because it was a big event whenever it came on TV; my sister and I would be allowed to stay up late and we would have big bowls of popcorn and watch it with our parents. (This was in the days of TVs with dials that you had to change between the 3 channels by hand! 🤣)

I found this copy in a LFL, and it was fun reading it!

rubyslippersreads I fondly remember the days when Oz was a once-a-year event. 😊 Is that Toto in your photo? 😂 3y
AmyG Ha! I remember those days. My brother got a TV for his Bar Mitzvah with a channel changer which was such a BIG DEAL. It will always be more fun to watch The Wizard of Oz the old way- once a year. 3y
ChaoticMissAdventures Mary Poppins was the book that really surprised me! Julie Andrews and all her love didn't prepare me for how mean book Poppins was 😳 3y

Today I finished reading the wizard of oz. I can‘t really complain about short reads because I usually just use them as a little in between to longer books. However, this is definitely a lot more violent than I remember. Definitely not for children, I struggled even as an adult :/
I gave this book 3 stars ✨
