Book Review: The Wizard of Oz Audiobook
We recently had a long car ride ahead of us, and I was trying to think of ideas to keep the kids entertained. And then, I had the brilliant idea to try an audiobook. Dylan looked into a few ideas, and we landed on The Wizard of Oz by L.Frank Baum. We thought it would be a fun story that Finn could engage with. Little did we know that we would all love it!
Anne Hathaway is the narrator, and she does an amazing job! Truly amazing! Her voices are just so well done. I also think she does a great job capturing the spirit of the movie that is so beloved, but also makes it her own because the book is very different from the movie, in a good way. I think it makes more sense than the flow of the movie.
So all that to say—
1.) If you haven’t read the Wizard of Oz, you should.
2) If you do want to read it, you should definitely consider listening to the audiobook narrated by Anne Hathaway.
Our whole family enjoyed it (and have listened through the book several times since that initial listen-through). Five stars from us!
