Reading book The Wizard of Oz - L. Frank Baum - Lemniscaat

If you've never read it, you've seen the Judy Garland movie or the Michael Jackson and Diana Ross remake—the story of the girl who's transported to the land of Oz by a whirlwind is part of our children's literature canon.

But the story from 1900 could use a makeover, so Margaretha van Andel has taken the text under her literary skilled hands and turned it into a sparkling adventure with this retelling. And Marieke Nelissen breathed new life into all the characters (yes, they are all there:Doortje and her dog Toto, the cowardly lion, the scarecrow and the tin forester – and of course a lot of Munchkins and other creatures) with her paint and brushes. .
