Lowcountry Summer - Dorothea Benton Frank
Item was delayed from publisher so didn't arrive as initially agreed, but I finally received it and it was worth the wait! As usual, any of Ms Franks books are worth the price and the wait.

Tik-Tok of Oz

13 reviews

Public Domain Books, 2009

One of the best of the Series
I teach creative writing to children and have used this book as an excellent model for the fantasy genre. It has all the great elements of a fantasy story--strange and enchanted happenings, magical creatures, faeries, and a wonderful quest. Many of Baum's books are not so plot-driven; this, like "The Patchwork Girl of Oz" is an exception, and the story works marvelously. Fans of the Oz series ...

Edison His Life and Inventions (Kindle Edition)
Edison, His Life and Inventions (mobi) This book does a good job of explaining Edison's personality, and a great job of explaining his achievements. The book is obviously carefully researched, and demonstrates a deep technical understanding of Edison's inventions. Thomas Edison was a prodigious inventor and a symbol of the American entrepreneurial spirit. His influence on the 20th century ...

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

Public Domain Books, 2009

Still a great children's book
This book, which was old when I was a child, is still a great children's book. In some ways, I like it better than the famous movie made from it and starring Judy Garland. The movie was great, but time constraints caused them to leave out quite a lot. As a child, I whiled away many an hour reading this particular book. Still, if your child is an indifferent reader, you might have to think ...

Bulls Island

HarperCollins e-books, 2008

Dorothea Benton Frank fan
Another wonderful book to read. Although I have never had the pleasure to visit South Carolina, Dorothea's books, like Bull's Island, that you have been there. And, her stories are always captivating. This particular story is charming and enjoyable. If you have read her previous books, I know you will want this one too. If you have never read any of her books, this one will induce you to ...

Glinda of Oz

17 reviews

Public Domain Books, 2009

A great Baum Oz book
If WIZARD is Baum's ODYSSEY, this one is his ILIAD. It's the most conflict-centered piece except RINKITINK and maybe THE LAND OF OZ. More than most, this book has a plot which begins, develops, and concludes. More than most, it lets you watch the magicians at work together, pooling their resources to accomplish a complicated task. More than most it raises interesting long-term questions ...

Angela's Ashes
At first I really didn't know what to think as I began reading Angela's Ashes.Angela's Ashes: A Memoir The author basically writes with an Irish accent. I had been looking forward to reading this book for a long time and I was kind of worried that this style of writing was not going to work for me. I guess I was very wrong. This was a wonderful read! The stories and his style were perfect! I ...

Public Domain Books, 2009

Another Great Oz Book By L Frank Baum
Though LONG past my childhood, I still find delight in re-reading Baum,s books about Oz and all the wonderful characters in each story. My dad used to read these stories to us when my sister and I were children. How we used to beg for 'just one more chapter, please.' I have not yet introduced our little granddaughter to these marvelous books, but will do so on her very next ' overnight visit'. ...

Loved it!
I am going to send this book to a friend who I left behind when I moved from Georgia. She is going to love this book! This book was a great read. Little did I know when I picked it up that I was going to enjoy it so much! I have already purchased another book by the author in hopes that it's this good. This is a funny, enchanting, enjoyable, heartfelt story. It's a thick book too so you get a ...

part of the "Books of Wonder" series
I don't know why Amazon's page doesn't mention this, but what Amazon is calling their "Rinkitink in Oz (Hardcover)" is indeed in the "Books of Wonder" series that the other hardbounds are in, all with dust jackets and illustrations by John Neill.
