So they set off with their new friends on a journey down the yellow brick road to find the only person who might be able to help them: the Wonderful Wizard of Oz.But what they find might surprise them. And on the way, all of them will learn that what they think they are missing might have been there, all along…Beautifully illustrated throughout, this is an unforgettable telling of a classic story and a must for every bookshelf. |
