The Wizard of Oz, L. Frank Baum's most well-known children's book, has become somewhat of a legend throughout the past century, with mentions, spin-offs and entire productions dedicated to the story of Dorothy as she strives to find her way home from the Land of Oz. The Emerald City of Oz depicts her next great adventure, reacquainting us with Dorothy, her Auntie Em and Uncle Henry, as well as Emerald City in all of its splendor, this time threatened by a new villain that we are introduced to right at the beginning of the book. Baum's Oz books have enjoyed huge success throughout the years, and this one certainly provides us with a good example as to why. The Emerald City of Oz is filled with adventure, suspenseful plot twists and lots of good quality humor that we've come to expect from the author, who is effortlessly able to immerse our minds into an entire enchanting universe filled with magic and wonder. The book also shows how Dorothy takes her aunt and uncle to Oz, and presents them with some of the stranger areas, including towns such as Utensia, Fuddles and Cuttenclips. Overall, through these added adventures, a dual narrative, new political struggles and wittier lines that older children are likely to enjoy as well, there is a definite sensation of growth in Baum's overall writing style, when we compare Emerald City of Oz to the other Oz books. If your children are already acquainted with the Oz saga, they will be completely enchanted by this amazing sequel, and Baum's remarkable ability to keep their attention will likely have them begging to know what the next chapters hold. Even adults who have enjoyed Baum's works in the past may be attracted to this more colorful, as well as more mature children's tale which will delightfully reacquaint them with their childhood heroes.
