This indeed is an excellent audio version of the classic book. Jason is awesome, for he made the characters came to life by his voice. I must say, after listening to other audio books of Oz, that Jason’s version is one of the best and funniest. Listening to this audio book is such a pleasure!

It is great to be reminded of this classic children’s book. And quite timely, as well, since my kids are at the perfect age to listen to stories audibly. I am looking forward to giving them the opportunity provided by Jason Pomerantz with this reading.

That’s a one great book. Jason Pomerantz is really amazing with his creativity in acting the voices of our beloved characters, and I really liked the character-voice development after fulfilling their wishes. My favorite character voice for sure would be the scarecrow.

A great reading by Jason, not only was it full of character, but his enthusiams kept the book going all the way through…

I’ve never read the book before, although i’ve seen the film/cartoons/sit-com parodies… and now i wish i’d read the book before. Thankyou for a job well done.

Not necessarily (though he could put the files up there) to the first question, and yes to the second, assuming donations are made to the book. Most of the time we pay authors, but sometimes we pay content providers.

Shouldn’t this be on librivox.org instead of podiobooks? Does this reader get paid as an author?

When I started listening to this book, I remembered trying to read it once upon a time, but couldn’t because the characters had so many peculiar speech mannerisms! I had no problem listening to Jason read. You did good, Jason! Thanks!

You probly know this already, but there is a huge series of Oz books by L. Frank Baum. I’ve read them so many times I couldn’t even count. The movie was good, but it’s only a tiny part of the Oz story. I encourage anyone and everyone to check out all the other Oz books or anything by L. Frank Baum.

He was a wonderful author who truly loved the children who grew up on his books.

I’m downloading your reading today, and I fully expect to go into another Oz rereading frenzy when I’m done with it.

Thanks Chris and Josh!

I think my personal favorite is the Cowardly Lion.

Jason Pomerantz has a very creative way of reading this classic. It makes the story really fun and interesting. Jason is really quite good with voices. The Scarecrow is probably my favorite.
