Synopsis
After being transported by a cyclone to the land of Oz, Dorothy and her dog are befriended by a scarecrow, a tin man, and a cowardly lion, who accompany her to the Emerald City to look for a wizard who can help Dorothy return home to Kansas.

This is the first in the 14-book Wizard of Oz series. When a tornado hits her small Kansas town, Dorothy Gale and her dog Toto are transported to the magical Land of Oz. Seeking a way back home, Dorothy sets out in search of the Wizard of Oz, who she hopes will be able to help her. As she travels, Dorothy meets a Scarecrow, a Tin Woodman, a Cowardly Lion, and the Wicked Witch of the West.

Industry Reviews
"I remember one of the first books my mother introduced me to was The Wizard of Oz. I can remember reading all of that series of the Wizard of Oz. I was very impressed. I kind of enjoyed the Tin Man. I remember the Wizard of Oz saying to the Tin Man, 'You want a heart?' And the Tin Man said, 'Yes I do.' And the Wizard said, 'Sometimes having a heart is not very good. It will make many people very unhappy.' And the Tin Man said, 'I will bear all unhappiness without a murmur if you will only give me a heart.' I enjoyed that. As I got a little older, I enjoyed Robert Service a great deal, particularly 'The Spell of the Yukon.' Because growing up in the West, and the mountains, I can remember very vividly things like, 'I've stood in some mighty-mouthed hollow/That's plumb-full of hush to the brim.' I remember us camping in the West, and standing at some mighty-mouthed hollow, plumb full of hush to the brim. That excited me about poetry."
William DeVries

Viennese illustrator and Hans Christian Andersen Medalist Lisbeth Zwerger takes a fresh look at L. Frank Baum's The Wizard of Oz in a large-format edition. Zwerger's fantastical, delicate, eccentric illustrations bear no resemblance to the vision of the movie; they make the classic tale new again. And readers can view the Emerald City through a pair of green-tinted glasses, provided in the back of the book.
