This was a fast read. I read it in less than a day. If it's on your to-read list, you don't have much of an excuse. :)

Overall, I really enjoyed it. It's a very light read, aimed at children (thus my pace, I guess). It was interesting to see how much the movie differed from the book. How the Tin Man came to be tin was kinda gruesome, especially for a child's book, but there weren't many details (beyond, say, the ax slipping and chopping off his head. :)
