William has been interested in the Wizard of Oz this month. He read a new printing we bought for Margaret with cool Deco artwork by Olimpia Zagnoli. Unless you read the original book, it is difficult to recognize the social satire in the story (most notably that the "Emerald" city has a rule that everyone must wear green tinted glasses before entering and must never remove them until they leave). Here is an image of the Tin Man that William drew.
