I confess... I just know the Disney version but yesterday I read the original and ohhhhhhhhh my heart... cry my eyes out in the end Any fans here???
Hmmm ... I didn't know there's an original story to begin with. Can you share the link or exact title? TIA.
One of my favorite books EVER. I used to read it about once a year. really can't wait to read it to my kids. problem is only that it is written in an older style and is difficult for kids to understand. but i am reading them the original OZ stories right now, and they aren't getting bored...so there's hope! There is another good movie done on the book you might want to look at: Peter Pan. It's done with real people (jason isaacs!) and is much closer to the original story. There is also a movie that was done on JM Barrie's life: Finding Neverland and there is also a PREquel to Peter Pan, it's Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens and tells the story of how Peter Pan even GOT to Neverland in the first place. can you tell i am a BIG fan?!
