When I originally began my Daily Lit installments, I originally
chose to read Grimm's Fairy Tales, but I was not really captivated by it so I
came across The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum and had decided
to read that book because I've never read the original. I read a little bit of
that book every day during my lunch breaks and sometimes at home on the
weekends. This book was made available in 43 installments through DailyLit and
at this point I am on installment 29/43.
The chapter I’m currently on is about the Winged Monkeys and they have carried
Dorothy away with them.
I have enjoyed the convenience of reading Daily Lit because it has
assisted me to read for pleasure during my lunch breaks. Another reason I like
this site is because it sends the installments that are short, sweet, and not
as daunting as reading a whole book. I say that because I am not an avid reader
and with the short passages provided daily I am not overwhelmed, thus not
feeling the urge to put the book aside and forget about it.
I’m excited to finish this book and then, just for fun, I’d like
to watch the old movie to compare the similarities and differences between the
book and the film, both long lasting classics.
