The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is a children's novel written by L. Frank Baum and illustrated by W. W. Denslow. Originally published by the George M. Hill Company in Chicago on May 17, 1900, it has since been reprinted numerous times, most often under the name The Wizard of Oz, which is the name of both the 1902 stage play and the well-known adaptation 1939 film version, starring Judy Garland. The story chronicles the adventures of a young girl named Dorothy Gale in the Land of Oz, after being swept away from her Kansas farm home in a tornado. Thanks in part to the 1939 MGM movie, it is one of the best-known stories in American popular culture and has been widely translated. Its initial success, and the success of the popular 1902 Broadway musical which Baum adapted from his original story, led to Baum's writing thirteen more Oz books. The original book has been in the public domain in the US since 1956.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Since the only version I know is the movie, and my son has read the whole series, I have always wanted to read this. It's been here since The Librettos were young boys. Since it's registered and labeled, I'll read it before we release it.
January 29, 2013: Very interesting! My son and I enjoyed talking about the differences between the book and the movie. Will be put aside to share with someone else.
February 5, 2013: Still wondering who to share this with ...
February 22, 2013: Offered to EMMEJO's OBCZ in Ithaca, NY.
