Reach for this book when you want to bridge the gap between a traditional story and the wonder of cinema, or when your child needs a sensory way to engage with a long-form classic. This interactive book uses Scanimation technology to make the characters move as the reader turns the page, creating a bridge between physical books and the dynamic movement of film. It provides a tactile, high-interest entry point into the world of Oz. The book highlights iconic moments from the 1939 film, focusing on themes of wonder, bravery, and the joy of discovery. Because it is a 11-page concept book rather than a text-heavy novel, it is accessible for preschoolers but remains fascinating for older elementary students who are interested in optical illusions and film history. It is a perfect choice for reluctant readers or children with sensory-seeking behaviors who find static pages less engaging.
