The Wizard of Oz – A Scanimation Book by Rufus Butler Seder abridges the original story made so famous when filmed with Judy Garland as Dorothy into ten scenes, from clicking red shoes to the journey down the Yellow Brick Road. With a quote from a character on the facing page and a sentence or two of narrative, the plot fairly gallops along.However my reservation is that someone has to fill in the gaps – it is possible that adults don't remember the story that well – and that The Wizard of Oz is for an older age group while Rufus Butler Seder's Scanimation® version is for younger children.
That said The Wizard of Oz – A Scanimation Book is beautifully produced by Workman Publishing with a sparkling red front cover.
