As Dorothy and her three friends continue their journey, you encounter a beautiful pop-up yellow brick road. It was truly a lot of fun to read this classic story with all the interactive elements it had to offer. There’s even an interactive element where readers can make Dorothy click her silver shoes together to take her back home. The Cowardly Lion has to be one of my favorite character renderings from the book, and the full page of him drinking from a dish to gain courage (while still wearing his Oz spectacles, mind you) is absolutely delightful. They provide a different look at the world, quite similar to Luna and her Spectrespecs. I won’t give everything away, but one of my favorite aspects of the book is the removable Oz spectacles that you can wear along with Dorothy and her friends as they enter the Emerald City. MinaLima has really outdone itself with this edition you can tell that Lima and Mina put a lot of effort into making these illustrations just as magical and engaging as the story itself. This is one of the original illustrations from “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.”
