The first totally American fantasy for children, it is one of the most-read children's books." - Library of Congress. "The book has a bright and joyous atmosphere and does not dwell upon killing and deeds of violence. Enough stirring adventure enters into it, however, to flavor it with zest ...It will indeed be strange if there be a normal child who will not enjoy the story." "An original departure in children's literature, in every way novel and unique. ... The text is charming and will prove interesting to both young and old. ... The illustrations surpass anything of the kind hitherto attempted. ... The funniest - the handsomest - the most elaborate child's book ever published." - The New York Times, 1900. "The Oz books are far ahead of their time both scientifically and politically. They are full of inventions that would not appear on the market for most of the century, among them a robot man, an artificial heart and limbs, a television monitoring system, anti-gravity devices, and a computer-type news service." - Alison Lurie. "I have learned to regard fame as a will-o-the-wisp, which when caught, is not worth the possession; but to please a child is a sweet and lovely thing that warms one's heart and brings its own reward." - L. Frank Baum. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is an enchanting tale of adventure and self-discovery in a magical country. It is America's first and greatest fairy tale and is one of the most-read children's books. Its unforgettable characters and memorable adventures made it an instant classic. This edition contains all the original illustrations from the original edition, newly recolored for this edition.-From the Edition by Benediction Classics
