so-soDorothy‘s visit to San Francisco is interrupted by an earthquake, where she falls into the earth. There, with her cousin Zeb, she meets up w/ the Wizard again through many adventures.
The way Baum writes animals suddenly realizing they can talk is always so funny to me. This 1 is very disjointed, w/ almost every chapter being a separate, contained adventure. I did love the fantastical elements of the lands under the Earth. 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑
My childhood. If I watched them once, I watched them hundreds of times. Perhaps that is why my scores are not high. I just rewatch my favorites.

pickBeautiful picture book that captures a wild, nature-filled, imaginative childhood, of Tove Jansson, iconic Swedish author of the Moomins comics. It's inspired by Jansson's writing about her youth, and includes a short bio at the back, which I'm happy to say mentions her longtime woman partner and how unusual it was for her to be out at that time.
“Then there was no end to the rage and disappointment of Tom Thumb and Hunca Munca.”

I love the illustrations in this book!

pick#CoverStories Day 21: 13 #Clock(s) tells the story of an evil duke who has murdered time (all thirteen clocks in the castle had been frozen at the same time, one snowy night, seven years before – thus it was always ten minutes to five in the castle); an enchanted princess; and a Prince disguised as a Minstrel who wishes to save the princess.
