I have never read the Wizard of Oz, and thought I might read the whole series. I must admit, I liked this so much better than the movie, which I never liked. The Wicked Witch of the West and the Winged monkeys always frightened me. I like that the Witch was not so powerful, and the Winged monkeys were actually fun, loving creatures. I will continue to read the series.
