Publisher's summary

Experience the land of Oz as you never thought possible. BFV’s unabridged production of L. Frank Baum’s classic tale relates the adventure of the Kansas farm girl, Dorothy, being whisked away by a cyclone to a magical country inhabited by small adults, animated china figurines, talking animals, and magical objects...much more than you were ever introduced to in the movie.

You’ll be enthralled as the narrator weaves the tale with vivid vocal characterizations, sound effects, and musical background making this rendition of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz the most amazing and memorable you have ever heard! This audiobook also contains the original introduction by Frank L Baum.

Wonderfully talented narration!

I respectfully disagree with Moonkiszt's review. The many voices by the main narrator are delightful and show a tremendous amount of talent. It also makes it so much easier to follow the story and helps to define the characters for children. Children love to be be entertained! Voices do that.
If you listen at 1.7 it changes the mood of the music and the narration is not understandable. Sorry, but that is a ridiculous idea. 1.0 is ideal.

narrator was odd. . .but mesmerizing at 1.7

love the book. better than the movie! but the narrator with all the different voices is just this side of creepy. . . more bearable with the speed turned up.

Para ser mi segunda vez...

... no ha estado mal la experiencia. Es un libro extenso para mi nivel, así q he ido muy lento. a lo mejor, demasiado.
