Toto The Wizard of Oz: As Told by the dog - Michael Morpurgo
Toto: The Wizard of Oz – As Told by the Dog is Michael Morpurgo’s charming, imaginative retelling of the classic Oz adventure — narrated not by Dorothy, but by her loyal little dog, Toto. This fresh perspective transforms the familiar tale into something wonderfully warm, witty and full of heart, offering young readers a delightful new way to experience one of literature’s most beloved journeys.
Through Toto’s eyes, the Land of Oz becomes even more magical, mysterious and occasionally mischievous. His voice is bright, loyal and irresistibly humorous, guiding readers through encounters with the Scarecrow, Tin Woodman and Cowardly Lion, while adding canine‑sharp observations about witches, wizards and the strange behaviour of humans. Morpurgo’s storytelling is gentle yet vivid, capturing the wonder of Oz with a modern, accessible charm.
Illustrated by Emma Chichester Clark, the book features expressive, characterful artwork that enhances the adventure and brings Toto’s personality to life. Ideal for confident readers aged 7–11 years, it balances adventure with warmth, making it perfect for family reading, classrooms and fans of classic tales told in inventive new ways.
A beautifully crafted retelling filled with loyalty, courage and sparkle, Toto: The Wizard of Oz – As Told by the Dog is a joyful celebration of friendship and the magic of seeing the world from a different point of view.
