The Wizard Of Oz


(5 stars)

Having read all the Oz books as a child, I was greatly looking forward to this audiobook, & I was not disappointed. All of the characterizations were spot on. It was great fun traveling down the yellow brick road in this reading, and I look forward to hearing more of the oz books which I hope continues to utilize the talents of these same people.

awesome book reading

I'm a fan of librivox & I'm glad that I have explored it further on my phone. The book is lovely. The storyline is also very intriguing. I firstly didn't like the voice of lion, but only to find it the most enjoyable after continuous listening. The lions voice was little louder than others. But overall a wonderful performance by all the readers for a wonderful book. Dorothy voice "I love it".

lovely story well read

I love the American voices. The first time I listened to a librivox reading of the wizard of hours it was just read out. I loved that but this one with the character voices is even better. Thanks volunteers.
