Enter classic literature’s most famous magical realm, and make choices to survive L. Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz in this Choose Your Path adventure.
You are Dorothy, the accidental adventurer. You’ve been swept away from your home in Kansas by a deadly tornado. Now, you find yourself in the Land of Oz, a fantastical world of witches, monsters, and talking animals. Every moment, your life is at risk. You must use your knowledge and courage—and plenty of help from your strange collection of friends—to survive such perils as angry trees, tiger-bears, and winged monkeys.
Adapted by award-winning author Ryan Jacobson with chapter illustrations by Y. Shane Nitzsche, Can You Survive the Wonderful Wizard of Oz? turns the classic novel by L. Frank Baum into a Choose Your Path book for kids. The survival story puts readers in control of the action. Do you have what it takes to traverse the road of yellow brick? Or will this dangerous route and its many obstacles lead to your doom? Step into this adventure, and choose your path. But choose wisely, or else!

“Traveling is a way of bringing people out of their heads and into their hearts. In this book, Can You Survive the Wonderful Wizard of Oz?, author Ryan Jacobson has done just that. Through the characters of this rather philosophical classic, Ryan puts the reader in the driver’s seat on a hero’s journey down the paths of the yellow, orange, red, brick, gravel, or dirt road, allowing the reader to choose which to follow. While reading this book, I found myself both laughing and pondering the words of Glinda, the Good Witch: “You don’t need to be helped any longer. You’ve always had the power.” Our imaginations can literally take us anywhere, and this piece of Interactive literature allows one person to be both an active character and an entertained audience at the same time.”
—Amy Nelson, Lake Agassiz Regional Library Associate

—Deb Mercier, author of The Empty Cabin
