THE POETRY BOOK OF OZ is a brand new, beautifully designed, FULL COLOR PAPERBACK VERSION of classic Ozian poetry celebrating the 125th Anniversary of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz novel.

At Ozia Arts Press we feel rhymes and poetry are a child's doorway to the magic of reading. Poems not only act as a form of amusing, verbal entertainment but also as an educational, language puzzle of words and meaning that can stimulate a child's insight and comprehension. What better way to introduce the young mind in your family to words of imagination with the charming fantasy characters from the world of Oz!
