Synopsis
Originally published in 1900 as THE WONDERFUL WIZARD OF OZ, and later under the title THE WIZARD OF OZ, L. Frank Baum's imaginative American fairy tale/fantasy has been a perennial favorite for over a century. Though there is academic debate about 1890s political references in the text, the adventures of Dorothy Gale and the creatures she meets are infinitely more entrancing to readers. This first volume in the 14-book Wizard of Oz series opens with a transformative tornado that hits Dorothy's small Kansas town and transports the girl and her pup, Toto, 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. As she travels, Dorothy is joined by an intellect-hungry Scarecrow, a forlorn Tin Woodman, and a deeply funny Cowardly Lion. But one of the most famous children's literary villains of all time, the Wicked Witch of the West, threatens to keep the foursome from their goal. The traditional edition is accompanied by W.W. Denslow's incredible illustrations, but many artists have re-illustrated this American masterpiece.
Publisher's Note
After a cyclone transports her to the land of Oz, Dorothy must seek out the great Wizard in order to return to Kansas, in a pop-up version of the classic tale.

) The pop-outs are fantastic. Every page has a huge pop-out bringing to life the portion of the story - and on every page is a set of smaller pages telling the rest of the story with little pop-outs on each one. The colors, imagery, depictions, and even the story (which has been condensed) are brilliant. This could not be a better book. Our kids love to read this thing, and when we went to see The Wizard of Oz with them for the first time, they references this pop-out book. We all love it!
Thank you for voting. If your vote meets our Extremely Delightful Pop Up Book

) The use of string and wooden dowels for movement on page 1 for the tornado and page 6 for the balloon are truly amazing. This makes for careful and delicate handling of the pages. As with all pop up books, you need to watch out as you may need to help the pop ups along in closing up and not get creased up. This is a spectacular Wizard of Oz story and will not fail to bring you joy. Robert Sabuda's books are works of art and I now have collected six of his pop up books. This book is truly one of his finest works.
great book

this books is amazing for both children and adults venturing back into their childhood. the plot is a shorter version of L. Frank Baum's original text, but children keep their attention on the book by the magnificent pictures that pop up from this book. (by the way.. my favorite page is the.... oh wait, i guess you'll have to buy it and see for yourself!)

The buy it now price was the same as at the auction. I am very happy with the book. Shop Ebay !!
