  • Great reprint of timeless, well-written tale

    Been a fan of L Frank Baum's "Oz" books since I was a child eons ago. But finding decent condition copies of originals has become difficult and expensive. Glad that there are high quality reprints at reasonable price like this one. Good color reproductions, good binding. A timeless, well-written set of tales every child (and adult) should read.
