Rated 1 starsOrdered this edition but received a different edition with a different illustrator that has few pict
I’m bummed because I ordered this edition and the one I received is illustrated by a different person. Still the same story but not with original illustrations. It has very few pictures. I also ordered “Very Good Condition” and it has very bright obvious orange stains. Disappointed and lost my trust for ordering books on here.

Rated 4 starsThis is for the Sandy Creek edition
That edition was published in 2009. It is impossible to buy an 1854 edition of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz because Frank L. Baum was born in 1856. The book was first published in 1900.

There are many reasons to love the Apple+ show, Ted Lasso. And one of the most compelling of these (for us anyway) is all the books that show up in it! Ted and his loyal sidekick Coach Beard are clearly big readers and the literary figures prominently in their chatter. So while we wait for season three, we are exploring the Ted Lasso library.
