Book Review: The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

Dorothy lives in a farmhouse in Kansas with her Uncle Henry and Aunt Em. When a tornado sweeps through the farmland, Aunt Em and Uncle Henry get into the cellar, but Dorothy and her dog Toto are still left inside the small farmhouse when the tornado hits them. The house, Dorothy, and Toto are pulled into the tornado. After a while, when it finally puts them down, they find themselves far from Kansas and in the Land of the Munchkins in the Land of Oz.

Have you heard of this story? It's been quite well known. It hasn't lost any of its popularity since last time. Dorothy and her friends, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion, have more adventures on their way to the Emerald City. You will know what they encounter along the way.

L. Frank Baum created a fantasy world for his family that has become a favourite classic. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is a book to be enjoyed by all people young and old. I first read it when I was in Primary School. I can even remember reading the sequels too. The last time I read it was around two years ago. Despite that, I had fun reading it again this June.

If you haven't read The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, read it today!
