“The Wicked Witch of Oz” by Rachel Cosgrove Payes. Designed and illustrated by Eric Shanower. The second Oz book by the author of The Hidden Valley of Oz introduces us to Singra, the Wicked Witch of the South, who has awakened after a one-hundred-year nap. In a quest to catch up with all the evil she has missed out on, Singra plots against the denizens of the Emerald City. Meanwhile, Dorothy, aided by Percy, the Giant White Rat, and Leon the Neon, a man formed entirely from lighted neon tubing, seek to thwart the evil Singra. Ms. Payes creates a suspenseful Oz tale that is balanced with humor, and Eric Shanower’s outstanding illustrations make this a book all Oz enthusiasts will want to read.
