Reviews

Traveling is a way of bringing people out of their heads and into their hearts. In this book, Can You Survive the Wonderful Wizard of Oz, author Ryan Jacobson has done just that. Through the characters of this rather philosophical classic, Ryan puts the reader in the drivers seat on a heros journey down the paths of the yellow, orange, red, brick, gravel, or dirt road, allowing the reader to choose which to follow. While reading this book, I found myself both laughing and pondering the words of Glinda, the Good Witch: You dont need to be helped any longer. Youve always had the power. Our imaginations can literally take us anywhere, and this piece of Interactive literature allows one person to be both an active character and an entertained audience at the same time.
