5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful and mysterious illustrations, "wonder full" story, 16 May 1997
By A Customer
This well-known fairy tale now has illustrations truly worthy of the mysterious and wonderful happenings in the Land of Oz. The European illustrator, Lisbeth Zwerger, states in the book jacket that she had never seen the Hollywood movie version before doing her drawings and that they were drawn simply from the author's own descriptions in the book. I read the book aloud to my daughters, one 10 and the other 6 years old, and found that the book is quite different from the movie. The pictures are exquisite, colorful, and capture the strangeness of the story. Both children loved it. Afterwards, the 6 year old said, "Mom, maybe we should BUY this book," (I had borrowed it from the library). Since then not only have I bought the book, I have given it to my nephew for his birthday and to another friend for her baby shower. It's superb.

5.0 out of 5 stars great illustrations, 30 Dec 1998
By A Customer
I bought it for the illustrations. Anyone who appreciates art will love Zwerger's work. Without a doubt, she's one of the best if not the best illustrator out there.

5.0 out of 5 stars An unusual and special interpretation, 7 May 1999
By A Customer
This was the first, but definitely not the last, book illustrated by Lisbeth Zwerger that I had ever purchased. Her watercolor technique is extremely enviable, and I just adored her intepretation of the Scarecrow! Her imagination is very rich indeed.

I'm sure Lizbeth Zwerger is a fantastic artist but her illustrations for this brilliant story left my family cold. Read more
