Editorial Reviews Review To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the publication of L. Frank Baum’s_The Wizard of Oz_, master paper engineer Robert Sabuda has created a pop-upversion of Dorothy’s adventures in Oz that fans will find hard to resist.Modeling his depictions of Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, and therest after W. W. Denslow’s original art, Sabuda adds a third dimension thatwould have rocked Denslow’s–and Baum’s–world. A rapidly spinning cycloneactually casts a breeze over the startled reader’s face. Glorious red poppieswave seductively in a field. And the Emerald City positively glitters withgreen, especially when young readers try on the special tinted “Spectacles forYou” provided in a pocket on the page. The abridged text, provided inminibooklets set onto each page, covers enough basics for the Oz novice, butwe recommend a read-aloud of the original, as well, for all the glory anddetail of Baum’s fantastic tale. Sabuda’s homage to the classic is trulyspectacular; even purists will gasp in delight at the sight of the humbugwizard floating away in his shiny green, gold, and blue hot-air balloon. Thisgreat introduction to the story of Oz doubles as a fun collector’s item. (Ages3 to 7) _–Emilie Coulter_ From Publishers Weekly Viennese illustrator and Hans Christian Andersen Medalist Lisbeth Zwergertakes a fresh look at L. Frank Baum’s The Wizard of Oz in a large-formatedition. Zwerger’s fantastical, delicate, eccentric illustrations bear noresemblance to the vision of the movie; they make the classic tale new again.And readers can view the Emerald City through a pair of green-tinted glasses,provided in the back of the book.
