The first three books of the iconic Oz series, now in one collection! In "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz," Dorothy and her dog, Toto, find themselves in a strange land called Oz after their Kansas house is swept away by a cyclone. Here they meet the Munchkins and join the Scarecrow, Tin Woodman, and the Cowardly Lion on an unforgettable journey to the Emerald City, where the all-powerful Wizard of Oz lives. Can he help Dorothy return home? In "The Marvelous Land of Oz, " a young boy named Tip escapes from a witch and sets out to explore land of Oz. Along the way, he meets the Scarecrow and Tin Woodman, as well as some new friends like Jack Pumpkinhead and the Wooden Sawhorse. Eventually, Tip s journey takes him to the Emerald City, where he realizes that his life will be changed forever. In "Ozma of Oz, " Dorothy is sailing to Australia when a huge storm washes her overboard. She only survives by clinging to a chicken crate. Eventually she and a yellow hen named Billina wash up on the magic shore of Ev where they meet the mechanical man Tik Tok.

We‘ve made it to the Gump, one of my favorite parts of the Return to Oz movie, which I recently learned is a mashup of Land of Oz and Ozma of Oz.

This section also provided a noteworthy quote from the Scarecrow: “That proves you are unusual and I am convinced that the only people worthy of consideration in this world are the unusual ones. For the common folks are like the leaves of a tree, and live and die unnoticed.”

I found all of these at the library book sale I went to yesterday. Not all of them in the series, but I was thrilled.

I'm REALLY looking forward to this weekend because I'll be doing one of two amazing things, either partcipating in the #24in48 readathon or doula-ing for my sister!!! It all just depends when my baby nephew decides he's ready to enter the world. All I know is that I can't wait to meet him! Wizard of Oz is my sister's favorite so this pic's for her!

laurieluna Becoming a Doula is one of the things I'm considering for a career once both of my boys are in full time education! All the best to your sister 😊 xx 7y
carmens.library @miralunasbooknook I'm a doula trainer with Childbirth International as well, so if you ever have any questions you're welcome to get in touch with me!!! 7y
laurieluna @Books.Bottles.and.Babies that would be fantastic! I'm also considering midwifery, but I'm leaning more towards Doula-ing because it's more women focused, and I love the idea of helping with post-partum care, definitely not enough focus put on it in the UK! 7y

carmens.library @miralunasbooknook Definitely not enough focus on postpartum here in the US either. BTW, we have a postpartum doula course too! I admit I'm biased, but one of the coolest things about our certifications is that there is no time limit to complete courses and our certs are for life. So it's actually really convenient for people with young kids or other things going on in their life. 7y
carmens.library @miralunasbooknook If you're interested you can email me at carmen@childbirthinternational.com and I would be happy to answer any questions you have about the courses! 7y

My nine year old and the children's librarian discussing a misprint he found in Oz - one book within the book stops mid-sentence / midway through and then another book within the book begins on the very next page. Poor kid wants to know what happens next!
