A deluxe gift edition of L. Frank Baum’s cherished children’s classic, vividly reimagined with beautiful four-color artwork and nine interactive features created by MinaLima, the award-winning design studio.
Hailed as “America’s greatest and best-loved homegrown fairytale” by the Library of Congress, L. Frank Baum’s classic story has been enjoyed by generations of young readers since its publication in 1900. One of the most-read children’s books, it is a staple of American literature and the inspiration for the beloved 1939 Academy Award-winning movie (widely acclaimed as one of the greatest films of all time), as well as stage plays and musicals.
When a tornado strikes the Kansas prairie, young orphan Dorothy Gale and her little dog Toto are blown away to Oz, a magical place filled with witches, munchkins, winged monkeys, and other unusual inhabitants. Lost and afraid, all Dorothy wants is to return to her Uncle Henry and Auntie Em. But to do so, the Good Witch of the North tells her, she must follow the Yellow Brick Road that leads to the Emerald City. There, she will find the fearsome Wizard of Oz who can help her find her way home.
Along the way, Dorothy encounters three unforgettable characters—the Scarecrow, the Tinman, and the Cowardly Lion—who join her in her quest. Their journey to the Emerald City, fraught with peril and adventure, teaches them the true meaning of friendship and reminds us all that there is no place like home.

"Received Beauty and the Beast and was very happy with the purchase. I plan on giving the book as a gift to my granddaughter on her birthday, which is in August. I have not broken the seal on the covering, as she may want to keep it that way. The book arrived in a timely fashion and it was very easy to order and ship. I look forward to her opening it."
"Got it for my wife for valentines day. I couldn't wait and gave it to her a couple days early. She loves it. She had a different version on her wishlist that has now been removed because in her words, "This is so much better than the leatherbound one I have on my wishlist. " So long story long, if your significant other loves books this is the perfect gift. The illustrations are amazing and the interactive elements add that extra little bit to make it special."
