Review by Horn Book Review

A new cast of characters dominates this seventh full-length book in the classic series. As Munchkin boy Ojo joins forces with the Patchwork Girl and others to find ingredients for a magic potion that will restore his uncle to life, they meet up with Dorothy, Toto, and even the Wizard himself. Neill's illustrations embellish the text with humor and period glamour, giving readers the full flavor of Baum's land of Oz. From HORN BOOK 1995, (c) Copyright 2010.

Where's the butter, Unc Nunkie? asked Ojo. Unc looked out of the window and stroked his long beard. Then he turned To The Munchkin boy and shook his head. "Isn't," said he. "Isn't any butter? That's too bad, Unc. Where's the jam then?" inquired Ojo, standing on a stool so he could look through all the shelves of the cupboard. But Unc Nunkie shook his head again.
