Dorothy is swallowed by an earthquake! And that is just the start of Dorothy's adventures in this exciting and fun book. She and her kitten, Eureka are on their way home and stop to visit a relative in California. But the earthquake opens the ground under their feet and everyone, including the horse and buggy and her cousin Zeb fall deep, deep into the earth. Down there they find they can walk on air, but are attacked by the strange and dangerous vegetable creatures. But who should drop in but Dorothy's old friend the Wizard of Oz with 9 tiny piglets! And all the animals can talk! From there the adventure really begins to get strange but in the end all is well when Ozma rescues them but I won't tell you how. Whew! what an exciting book!

Love


(5 stars)

The readers voice is really clear and I could understand everything.


(5 stars)

All oz books are amazing! The reader is very good, too!

Fantastic reading; weaker story


(5 stars)

Phil Chenevert does a masterful job once again. However, the story suffers from a "deus ex machina" and plot elements that are suddenly introduced and abandoned. Ozma is a much better book!

C & S


(5 stars)

Narrator does a wonderful job. Really an excellent story teller. My 11 year old enjoyed the book but we both agreed that The Wizard of Oz is far superior.

Another great book!

Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz


(3 stars)

Dorothy conveniently forgets that ozma could have saved them the moment they fell into the earth and leads her party into unnecessary danger multiple times. Ozma, quite uncharacteristically, basically demands the wizard give her one of his pets for her own then nearly has Dorothy’s kitten beheaded when she carelessly neglects it then assumes the kitten ate it. Baum seemed to get bored of the four nearly identical harrowing battles before ozma saves them with the Goblin King’s belt and just sort of went off into a different story completely. Also, Jim the horse is a tremendous asshole.

not good morals, slow going book


(3.5 stars)

love the reader, was happy he was able to read it all thought. look for more book by him. this story is not as good as the first book. sad. almost every place they went they interfered with the towns eating or destroyed each and all. I don't like how the took things from the characters as then destroyed it rather then returned it. I like when in the first book they help and got the help they need. not so here.
