This is an incredible story. At first, I thought it is just a boring, childish fairy tale. But after I had finished reading this original version of fairy tale, I completely change my thought. It is so amazing, fantastic, creative, and warming. I first read this tale when I was in kindergarten, at that time, I thought it was an odd and boring story. However, I watched the 1939 adaption movie “The Wizard of OZ” last year; it is a wonderful movie, I love it very much. From then on, I began to interest in this tale, so I borrow this original version.
At the first chapter, it did not describe Dorothy’s family very much, if you compare to the movie; they did not even speak a word. But after that, it described everything specifically; it makes me feel like reading “The Lord of the Ring”. It is quite adorable at some part, for example: The compadres always said what they want in the all story; it sounds stupid, but when they said that, you would think it is very cute. The all story have a lot of new and odd creature or place. It makes me feel I am in a fantasy adventure, those interesting stuff attract me to this fantasyland. However, the most fascinating part to me is its simple. Their simple thought, dialogue, and heart take me to the old time. Those happy memories, and those innocent people, are all great old time. What a masterpiece.
After reading this book, my thought to the fairy tale change a lot. I had always thought it is not a good story to watch. After so many years, now I think the fairy tale is the most important type of story! Its inspiration, innocent, and creativity is the comfort to everybody.
