The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, by L. Frank Baum

[Bam cooks the books]

I'm going with a children's classic for Kansas! I'm sure everyone is familiar with the story but here's the synopsis:

"Dorothy thinks she's lost forever when a tornado whirls her and her dog, Toto, into a magical world. To get home, she must find the wonderful wizard in the Emerald City of Oz. On the way she meets the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman and the Cowardly Lion. But the Wicked Witch of the West has her own plans for the new arrival - will Dorothy ever see Kansas again?"
