(IDB Productions Jan. 1, 2016)
The twelfth book in the Oz series, The Tin Woodman of Oz is one of the most engaging and most entertaining books of all Oz stories. As the subtitle informs the reader, the Tin Woodman is assisted during his journey by Woot the Wanderer, the Scarecrow of Oz and by Polychrome the Rainbow’s Daughter and together they go through the most amazing adventures, The story starts with the Tin Woodman and the Scarecrow entertaining each other with tales when Woot appears and asks the Woodman how he was transformed into a tin figure. He tells Woot about how he was cursed by the Wicked Witch of the East for his love for Nimmie Amee and how the curse made him chop off his wooden limbs one by one, then how his limbs were replaced with arms and legs made from tin. He lost his heart, too, so he left Nimmie Amee and he took refuge in the forest. Unfortunately, his tin limbs got damaged by moisture and Dorothy and the Scarecrow found him is a very bad shape, all rusted and stiff.The three went together to the Wizard of Oz, where the Tin Woodman was given a heart. Woot listens to the story, then concludes that heart that the Tin Woodman received was a good heart, but not a loving heart, otherwise he would have long set off to find Nimmie. Ashamed by such criticism, the Tin Woodman sets on a journey in the company of his friends to find the woman he loves – he does find her after lots of adventures and hardships, but whether she will be willing to go back to him is an entirely different story.In the 1910’s, when The Tin Woodman was published, the popularity of Baum’s Oz stories had been in a decline for some time – a process that was successfully reversed by this great story. It has been enjoying huge popularity ever since, entertaining children and adults, teaching readers about love, heroism and life in general.
