The Patchwork Girl of Oz (Oz 7)- L. Frabk Baun

Mensaje por escipiona »

In this dazzling tale, L. Frank Baum proves once again his power to delight and enchant readers of all ages. Follow the adventures of a charming new band of characters as they explore the wondrous land of Oz and discover that you learn more by traveling than by staying at home.

Forced to venture out of the dark forest, Unc Nunkie and Ojo the Unlucky call on the Crooked Magician, who introduces them to his latest creation: a living girl made out of patchwork quilts and cotton stuffing. But when an accident leaves beloved Unc Nunkie a motionless statue, it is up to Ojo to save him. In his search for the magic ingredients that will restore his uncle to life, Ojo is joined by the Patchwork Girl and by the conceited Glass Cat, who boasts of her hard ruby heart, the resourceful Shaggy Man, and the lovable block-headed Woozy, whose tail hairs are just one of the things Ojo needs to rescue Une Nunkie.

As they travel to the Emerald City, home of the wise and powerful Ozma, they meet Dorothy, the kind and sensible girl from Kansas; the gallant Scarecrow; and, of course, Toto. But no one proves more loyal than the spirited Patchwork Girl, who, although she was brought to life as a servant, is determined to see the wide world for herself.

The Patchwork Girl of Oz has captivated readers for over eighty years. Now, in this stunning new edition--featuring all fifty-one of John R. Neill's original full-color plates as well as eighty black-and-white illustrations--a whole new generation can discover the beauty and wonder of Oz that have made this classic series an enduring favorite.

I have read until chapter 12
and my impression has changed totally. This books reminds me of the first book of Oz due to the way of telling the story. Furthermore Scarecrow and Tin Woodman start being named.

I'm reading Chapter sixteen
Everything is fault of Dorothy. She had planned to become a princess of Oz. Moreover Ojo have been arrested.
The story have improved. Moreover, the story explain perfectly well what it have happened eith Oz, Scarecrow, and Tin Woodman.
I have read until chapter eighteen
Ojo has been forgiven by Ozma. Moreover, It seems that Dorothy isn't bad despite that she thought that her plan to become a princess was perfect

I have read until Chapter twenty- three
I'm incredibly surprised with the book because It seems pretty easy to declare a war and find a solution in two chapters. On the other hand, the author continues to use the same the same resources of previous books
