review 1: Sooooo, the first two Oz books I read were whimsical fairy tales. I enjoyed them, however this book is just silly. I gave it two stars because I like the Woggle-Bug, but that is pretty much the only reason for the two stars. I realize the book had been written in the early 1900's, but I still found it disturbing that there were racial slurs in a children's book.This will not keep me from reading the Oz books. In the first two there were no slurs, so I am thinking as long as the story is in Oz and not in our world it will be ok.
review 2: This was a very random story to start off with. But following and trying to make sense of what was written was not made easy by typing errors/spelling mistakes. And even more mysteriously, there are regular weird summary/spoile... morer paragraphs. I wondered throughout my reading if they were chapter titles? No, that made no sense. So I can only conclude that they are captions for pictures that were missing. Glad I didn't pay for this. less
