The Wizard of OZ
I started reading 'The Wizard of Oz' by L. Frank Baum to the boys last week. We usually only read 1 or 2 chapters a night, so we aren't too far into it. It's funny to see how different the book is from the movie. So many things have been different already, for one thing the ruby slippers are actually silver. I think since the movie is so popular, it may be hard to not constantly make the comparisons to the book.

We just finished this. I felt that it was a case of "the movie is better than the book", but that may be because it is such a popular movie. There was definitely more adventure in the book than the movie, but I really love the ending of the movie and the book didn't really have much of an ending. Mason also preferred the movie.
