This was one of the few books I owned as a child. This was my first fantasy novel and I did read it over and over. Of course I built stories about what else may have happened in OZ as I read. I did read it until the covers fell off.
As my kids grew of course I introduced them to OZ, to Dorthy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman...and the Lion. But they went on and read many of the other OZ books I never did.
I think things that last, things that one generation can share with the next...and for that matter the next and the next are great and should be cherished.
