L. Frank Baum keeps coming up in recommendations. Where would people start with their books?

Ronan, would be nice to come back to this thread once a few more people have given it a go.

Ozma of Oz is one I am weighing up. This is the sort of choice I might miss without someone putting it forward.

Fionn, same question here. A quick note on the pace would help me make up my mind.

For anyone considering Ozma of Oz: Leaving a boost while I decide. The hard bit is narrowing the list down to just one.
