It's weird to me that Baum makes a big thing about this being an American fairy tale, yet Scarecrow being "the choice of the people" is negated by some unknown girl having royal blood.

No, actually...Jack makes a good point. If Glinda already knows that the Emerald City has been conquered, you'd think she wouldn't wait around for you to come begging for assistance.

Since later books will establish that they don't use money in Oz, we missed a joke where they cram the Scarecrow full of green clothes without realizing that they have any value.

"As he road Jack noticed that the grass and trees had become a bright emerald green in colour..."
Haven't we established that Jack is colorblind?

How does he know all this? The Wizard being a fraud is still supposed to be a secret, isn't it?

I like that children were specifically asking for a sequel with the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodsman. I'm not alone in thinking that the Lion was the least interesting of the trio.
