The Patchwork Girl of Oz (version 2)
L. Frank Baum
Read by Phil Chenevert
Yes, this is another wonderful OZ book with all the old familiar characters and some new delightful ones. The Patchwork Girl, a free spirit if ever there was one, is brought to life in this story and then sets out into the wonderful world of OZ to help her friend Ojo find the ingredients for a magic potion to save his Uncle. The five things they need are strange and the places and people they meet along their journey are sometimes dangerous and sometimes funny but the Patchwork Girl always finds humor and fun in all of them. They are accompanied by the Glass Cat who is stuck up and arrogant because of her good looks and 'pink brains'. Another fun book well written by Baum and worth listening to by fans of OZ from 7 to 107. (Summary by Phil Chenevert) (6 hr 41 min)

Very enjoyable

I love the Oz books, this one, I love no less. The characters are fantastic and the narrator is very easy to understand. I believe he does the voices for the characters very well.
Very well read!
Brian Fuller
Although the title says "The Patchwork Girl of Oz" it should have been called "The Quest of Ojo of Oz" since the story was mainly about him on a quest to procure items for a magical charm to undo the accidental changing of his uncle into marble. Aside from the confusing title it was well written and showed clever troubleshooting out of the box solutions to several odd problems that came about through co-operation of everyone working together! The author cleverly inserted a lesson about the evils of Eugenics in a allegorical way and a antislavery message as well! The narrator is a perfect match for the Oz series once again! No one quite captures & maintains the magic of the Oz stories in such an enchanting spellbinding way as Phil Chenevert masterfully does!

I love Phil Chenevert’s voice and he does such a good job of reading the Wizard of Oz series. Does just the right amount of different voices for the characters that it’s a good differentiation but not a distraction.
Another good story

I didn't like this story as well as the others, but it was still a good read. The reader did an excellent job, as always.
