Hi Dannii, if you're restarting it from the beginning you can use it the same way you could use any other book you read in March. Just let us know that you restarted when you post on your team review thread so that we know that that is what you've done ☺

Eesh (quirkyopinions) | 7289 comments Can I use this edition of The Marvelous Land of Oz (Oz, #2) by L. Frank Baum for the challenge? Or similar editions that have no illustrator listed and are over 300 pages?

Hi Quirks, I checked, but you can't see inside that exact edition on Amazon, but they have that edition on Book Depository, and it says
' Illustrations note: Illustrations, black and white'
so I'm pretty sure that that edition is illustrated.
I tried to find the word count, and found two numbers which are pretty close - 42,006 and 43,000. Paperbacks have 250 words per page on average, so that would be 43,000/250 = 172 pages.
This edition on Amazon appears to be unillustrated - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Marvelous-La... but comes in at only 91 pages, and the epub you can download from Goodreads is unillustrated and comes in at 132 pages, so the 172 page count is the best we can do I think x

Sarah Elizabeth (bookworm_sarah) | 90931 comments Mod
The 172 page count would be counted at normal rates (not children's rates), so you could use a 28 page short story to get to the 200 pages if you wanted x
