A day late for over the rainbow...

Originally slated for the first Kansas race but it will have to do for a late entry!

The Wonderful Wizard of OZ- Dorothy is a girl who lives in a farmhouse in Kansas with her Uncle Henry, Aunt Em, and little dog Toto. One day the farmhouse, with Dorothy and Toto inside, is caught up in a tornado and deposited in a field in the Land of the Munchkins in the Land of Oz. The falling house kills the ruler of the Munchkins, the Wicked Witch of the East. The Good Witch of the North comes with the Munchkins to greet Dorothy and gives Dorothy the Silver Shoes that the Wicked Witch of the East had been wearing when she was killed. In order to return to Kansas, the Good Witch of the North tells Dorothy that she will have to go to the "Emerald City" or "City of Emeralds" and ask the Wizard of Oz to help her.

I know, a book a weekend was my goal, but that went the way of the Dodo earlier this year...I tried but there have been some weekend where my heart just wasn't into writing anything even a book review. I'm hoping that next year and my goal of movies/actors & actresses goes better!!
