The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
by L. Frank Baum
About this book
Kansas is gray, and the cyclone sets your house down somewhere it very much is not. L. Frank Baum's Oz runs on kindness traded for competence — walk the yellow brick road with the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman, or strike your own deal with the Wizard behind the curtain.
