" Baum was a true educator, and those who read his Oz books are often made what they were not-- imaginative,
tolerant, alert to wonders, life." -- Gore Vidal

3.0 out of 5 stars the Wizard of Oz: A Simple Edition, May 25 2004

By	Sam A. Milazzo (Sydney, N.S.W Australia) - See all my reviews

Once again I, Sam Milazzo, have seen this book in a store, looked through it and am now sharing my thoughts and description of this book onto the internet for ALL to see and know . . . .
This edition is - as you know, paperback with a real tornadop on the cover and a farmhouse just nearby. this editon has the illustrations of W. W. Denslow, but the only pcitures they include are the Chapter Title pictures and the (colour) plates that are in those chapters, however, the pictures are in a "photocopied" mode, with the colours in grey - light & dark. Before the story begins there is a copy of Ray Bradbury's "Because, Because, Because, Because of the Wonderful things He Does" Essay on L. Frank baum and Lewis Carroll, on their writings of Oz and Alice, comparing the differences and how Wonderland is what we ARE and Oz is what we WANT and HOPE to be - this already appeared in the "Centennial Edition" with William Stout's illustration of MGM Glinda in the "O". At the end of the book, are a series of questions, helping you realise the depths of the story - but these questions are not the same Qu's from the "Aladdin" edition (where a girl that passes for Dorothy in a brown photo is the cover) - these are new questions. Check if any of the book stores near you have this edition, look through it and choose for yourself whether you want this or not. It's not as good as the other editions, but it is better than the "Aladdin" editon, which has NO PICTURES - I have that edition.
