A Great & Powerful Book!

Who hasn’t enjoyed The Wizard of Oz movie starring Judy Garland, based on the book by L. Frank Baum?  With the movie release of Oz the Great and Powerful there has been a resurgence in popularity of all things Oz and we have just the book for you at the library.  Everything Oz by Christine Leech and Hannah Read-Baldrey is a book with over 50 Oz themed projects including Over the Rainbow Cake, Tin Can Lanterns and Cowardly Lion Hand Puppets.  You can even find a recipe for treats for Toto!  This book is visually appealing with quotes from Baum’s book interspersed throughout, ideas for decorating, and pages you can photocopy for making gift tags, puppets and more.  It's the type of book you don't need but can't do without.  Personally, I'm thinking of trying an Emerald City themed party featuring glow in the dark green jello. (Wondering what makes the jello glow?  You'll have to read the book!)  I'll send the Winged Monkey invites to get guests in the mood.  SG
