Review:
Like Robin Hood, Alice or Winnie the Pooh, Baum's inventions . . . have become the mythological furniture of our children's minds, and of our own and our parents' . . . Funny and inventive (Marina Warner Guardian)
The tales of Aesop and other fabulists . . . will never pass entirely away, but a welcome place remains and will easily be found for such stories as The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (New York Times)
Baum created a truly extraordinary world, a real world . . . and filled it with amazing things (Dinitia Smith)
[It] has worked its way into the national psyche as a fable of eternal hope in which things are not always as fearsome as they seem (New York Times)
Baum dared to offer delight without instruction (Michael Patrick Hearn)
