1-3Dorothy and Toto series.
Illustrated by
Monika Roe.
In Picnic, a sneaky weasel gets Toto in trouble when picnic food goes missing; Dorothy and friends search for a runaway Toto in Lost. Despite the bland writing, there should be enough surprise and mischief in these brief Oz-set stories to hold new readers' interest. Flat color illustrations appear throughout. A brief synopsis of The Wizard of Oz and reader questions are appended. Glos. Review covers these Dorothy and Toto titles: The Disappearing Picnic and Little Dog Lost.
