About this title: For Rushdie The Wizard of Oz is more than a children's film, and more than a fantasy. It's a story 'whose driving force is the inadequacy of adults', in which the 'weakness of grown-ups forces children to take control of their own destinies'.

"When I saw the movie when I was REALLY little Ii think 2nd or 3rd grade I'm not sure I fell in love with it but when I saw the book I was not that interested in it because it looked kind of long well for 3rd grade standards. I decided to read it because it actually wasn't that long and it kind of reminded me of a lion the witch and the wardrobe a little because there were witches in it and what not. So Dorthy is the main character and she lives in Kansas but after a tornado she wakes up in another world with her dog Toto. Throughout the book Dorthy is just trying to find a way home with the help of her new found friends and also want something to. I recommend this book to anybody it was actually a pretty good book."
"This book makes me want to read more stuff by Rushdie. I loved reading his take on a movie I'm researching the hell out of. Enlightening, interesting, and bizzare. I'll be using this as a handbook and crediting him appropriately."
