The book I read is about a girl named
Dorothy who got stuck in a cyclone. She fell asleep
during the cyclone and had a dream. During her
journey, she met a Scarecrow, a Tin-man, and a
Lion. They were all on their way to see the Wizard
of Oz. When she woke up, she went outside and the
cyclone had stopped and everything was beautiful.
Dorothy was glad to be home again.
My favorite part in this book is when
Dorothy meets the Tinman. I like it because the
Tinman is very funny because in the book, the
Tinman forgot how to walk.
I think you should read this book
because it is a really good book. It has adventure
and it is very exciting. Once something happens,
you will want to know what is going to happen
next. If you are a person who likes adventures then
you should read this book.
The story reminds me of when I went
driving to Malaysia with my family. On the way, I
fell asleep and I had a dream like Dorothy did when
she fell asleep during the tornado.
