Description
Dorothy: "Have you read chapter 12? It's shocking!"...I thought it would be a funny concept for Dorothy to read The Wonderful Wizard of Oz as narrated by the ever-present L. Frank Baum. (I say ever-present because, in all the books, Baum consistantly writes from the narrator's point of view, but what's interesting is that he makes it seem like the characters are all personally relaying the information to him.)
I'm a huge Oz fan/collector, so this was taken with my two Oz posters in the background while sitting in my Dorothy costume on my Oz throw rug. O_<
But I'm not obsessed or anything.
Enjoy!
...And yeah, the shoes are silver, not red. Just like the book. The socks were my idea. ^^

Yay! Somebody who likes the books!
I honestly love it when I find people that are into the book.
Doesn't it sort of make you sick when people are like "Look! Its Elphaba!" or "Nessarose got crushed by the house" if they watch the movie? Gregory Maguire just used things from the book and the movie and built a story around that pretty much. So without L. Frank Baum's story Gregory Maguire wouldn't have the stupid fans being ripped from the movie and thrust into the Wicked book or Broadway play...
I prefer Baum's books more...

I love the books, they're beautifully written. I like Wicked as well, but I think it's important to treat them as separate entities. They are two completely different works.

I like Wicked as well but I can't stand it when people treat the 1939 MGM movie, the book(s), and Wicked like they're all meant to be connected.

Nah, that's not obsessive -- at least your username isn't Oz related.

Lol, indeed! A blonde with a short haircut, just like in the later books. That would have thrown everyone off!
I'm glad you like it.

You'd have found out *really quickly* if there were any Oz book fans nearby.

Indeed! They would have crawled out of the woodwork. ^_^

I prefer to think they would have appeared -- magically!
