Advance Praise
"Toto's Tale and True Chronicle of Oz is an utterly charming account of the famous Oz adventure... told from the point of view of the little dog. He makes for a completely delightful narrator, offering a unique perspective, complete with astute canine observations . . . that made me smile and laugh throughout the story. This adventurous tale will appeal to readers and listeners of all ages. Toto also fills us in on some interesting background about how Dorothy ended up with Aunt Em and Uncle Henry. . . This glimpse into Dorothy's personal history-- and the history of our country-- make the story even more vibrant and emotionally resonant."
