Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West
Forget about Dorothy. Forget about the Wizard. The real star of the Wizard of Oz SHOULD have been the Wicked Witch. And obviously the author of this book thought the same.
This is the biography of Elphaba, the girl born with an abnormal green skin pigmentation, destined by unusual circumstances to become the Wicked Witch of the West. As you accompany Elphie on her life journey, you will come to understand the rather differant motives of the Animal rights activist later named witch by the Wizard, and in turn begin to explore the true nature of good and evil. This is a wity, political, and ultimately dramatic twist on the timeless children's classic. Here is a novel that you should definitely not miss out on! ^_~
