1. I have some original Wizard of Oz books from the early 1900s. Earliest is 1903.
2. The Wizard of Oz stories are still filled with fantasy and perfect for children.

Browsing my local Barnes and Noble, I stumbled upon a game book for an Oz tabletop RPG. It is amazing. I had to find out more about Oz. Having only known the Wizard of Oz and its sequel Return to Oz, I did not know too much about Oz. But now I have the complete collection here on my kindle and will journey into the land of Oz posthaste. Wish me luck.

BookmarkTavern Oh you are in for such a treat! Have fun! 8mo
Fr3NcHtOaSt @BookmarkTavern I‘m halfway through the first book and I love it. I knew this was going to be good. It‘s such a joy to read. 8mo
BookmarkTavern I love the first one, but I think 2 and 3 are my favorite. 💛 8mo
Fr3NcHtOaSt @BookmarkTavern from what I already do know I think Tik Tok is my favorite character so far, just from having seen Return to Oz. 8mo

“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!”

Finished this on my way home. I‘m not convinced of the necessity of the dual timeline. Most of the time was spent in the past — I‘d often forget that there was also a story being told about the filming of The Wizard of Oz.

I‘m headed home tomorrow, so I took one last walk by the river this evening. I‘m enjoying Finding Dorothy. #audiowalk

Just the perfect read for today. With a dual timeline, Letts gives us a peek into Frank and Maud‘s courtship, marriage, and family; then shows how Mrs. Baum, through visits to MGM and heart-to-heart talks with Judy Garland, influenced the movie and its magic during filming.

MissyD I really enjoyed this book. I found it a bit slow at times. But I Soo love the wizard of oz that i stuck with it 1y
marleed What I remember most from this book was Maud‘s relationship with her famous suffragette mother. I did not know this and found it fascinating. 1y
Eggs @AnnCrystal ❤️👠❤️🙌🏻🙌🏻 1y
Eggs @MissyD Loved it & Baum‘s playful nature. Maud‘s sister was a sad part 1y
Eggs @marleed New to me also, but Julia‘s situation was very sad 1y
MissyD @marleed I never knew that either. I fell down a rabbit hole as I often do when reading historical fiction because I start googling things from the books. It was really well written. The author used lots of letters/diaries from the Baum‘s in her writing. 1y
Andrew65 Brilliant 👏👏👏 1y

“Magic isn‘t things materializing out of nowhere. Magic is when a lot of people all believe in the same thing at the same time, and somehow we all escape ourselves a little bit…”

I enjoyed this story about the making of The Wizard of Oz and the life of the author told through his wife.
