I had most of Baum's other books on my want to read list and recently I have been reading the rest of his books and crossing them off of my list.
On one hand I wonder why these books were so popular because they are remarkably predictable and a little off the wall. On the other hand when I compare Baum's book to Gregory Maguire's books I much prefer Baum's innocent style.
While I think that some of Baum's books are critical to have in a library I do think that some of his books at least are repetitive and while they introduce rather remarkable characters unnecessary to read.
