We're off to see the Wizard! The wonderful Wizard of Oz! Rediscover L. Frank Baum's timeless children's classic that has charmed readers for generations.

Readers of all ages will follow the Yellow Brick Road in this unforgettable and colorful journey that takes us from Dorothy's gray Kansas home into the blue Munchkin land; from the sparkling bejeweled Emerald City to the dark, foreboding forest; and finally, to the ruby-red throne room of Glinda the Good Witch. Join the found family of Dorothy and Toto, Scarecrow, the Cowardly Lion, and the Tin Woodman as they journey through the wonderful land of Oz.

This Classic Edition of The Wizard of Oz features:

  • A beautifully designed hardcover
  • A child-friendly retelling that remains faithful to L. Frank Baum's original text

The Wizard of Oz Hardcover Reviews

Charles Santore turns L. Frank Baum's classic story, THE WIZARD OF OZ into an heirloom book. There are 100 pages in this abridgment of Dorothy's adventures, all fully illustrated, most full-page and many double-page spreads. Together they reinvigorate the tale in an oversized book which speaks volumes about the rich imaginations of Baum and Santore while making the book accessible to younger readers. -- Susie Wilde of Igniting Writing
I look forward to bringing this book into my classroom on Monday. I have a feeling that many of my Wizard of Oz fans will be clamoring to read it. -- Katherine Sokolowski of Read, Write, Reflect
THE WIZARD OF OZ: THE CLASSIC EDITION is a beautifully rendered book that is sure to quickly become a family favorite. -- Alex Baugh of Randomly Reading
