it's a good, fast read... i understand the movie is a disappointment, but i can't speak with authority. a very interesting book i read some months ago.... was, geoff ryman. it weaves the real story of dorothy gael, an orphan who went in 1875 to live with relatives near manhattan, kansas, at taht time still the west....she was abused by her aunt(em) and uncle (henry) and had a dog ( toto), her only happiness. she lives a heartbreaking existence until she meets a substitute teacher (l.frank baum) at which point her life is changed, as is baum's as well. it weaves also the story of judy garland's sad young life, and her much sadder later life of unhappy fame...the odd convergence of the two lives through an inventive line of characters gives it a rich texture..... i liked it alot.
