1: The Marvelous Mind of Baum
This is a wonderful book that combines all of the very imaginative OZ books into one volume. Every child should either read or be read these stories as they grow up.
My only complaint with this volume is that it doesn't have any illustrations. I would very much have liked to see a volume like this but with all of the original illustrations. They are so fanciful and lovely that it is a shame to find them missing here. But, to be honest, if they couldn't put the original illustrations, I would prefer no illustrations at all, so this is probably the second best setup. I've seen some publications with newer illustrations, and I haven't seen any that capture the charm of the books nearly so well.
However, even with the lack of illustrations, I still give this volume five stars because it is the stories that are the true stars here and a child's mind can work wonders with the imagery that is described in Baum's prose, even without the aid of illustrations.
