2.0 out of 5 stars
Not playing by the rules.,
By S. A. Hanson (Columbus, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lost Princess of Oz (Hardcover)
Writing a series is just like playing a game. You need to play by the rules to make everything turn out just right. If you can't play the game without cheating it you need to quit while you're ahead. Winners never cheat, and cheaters never win. The Frogman is really a reworking of Mr. Wogglebug. He is born a normal frog and then falls into a magic pond that makes him bigger and wiser. The Yips make him their leader. He lives based on a lie untill he accidently swims in the Truth Pond. (not having control over what you say is a curse that no one should have) He goes from arrogant and conceited to lovable and just proud. (like Mr. Wogglebug is) It was not magic that brought Mr. Wogglebug the way he is. He spent three whole years in a schoolhouse of the best scholar there ever was. He spent about a year living in the truth and now almost a century living based on a lie. Everyone acted like they were so blinded by what they don't like about him (what they don't understand) that they couldn't see the beauty in his spirit. So he just automatically became what they thought he was, all because they just couldn't see the truth. And the Scarecrow got all of his special gifts and the Frogman got all the rest of him when he was created.
