Calculo Review
You probably read this book when you were a bit younger, but I now ask you
to read it from a different and a more mature point of view.
Yes, a magnificent story with Dorothy and Toto the black dog, and some other
characters from the land of Oz! Yet, what did the land of Oz
really do to Dorothy? The answer's very simple: It made her
understand that one's characteristics are given to him/her from the people
surrounding them.
A scarecrow, a woodman made of tin, and a lion, join Dorothy in search for
the Wizard of Oz, each requesting the same gift, without actually knowing
it. Yet they gain it, unnoticedly, through their journey, with the help of
one another. Truly an example of the saying, it's not so much the
destination, as the journey itself that matters.
Intrigued? Go read the book!
