Sad Way to Start the Summer

Now that it has been established that it is summer time, Boq, could be going home to be with his family. This could help the reader understand the politics of Oz better, as well as help with more of the details of the Land if Oz. Hopefully this is what happens. It would be interesting to learn about how the counties differ form location, as well as species. That is a racial comment that is relatable with the text. The racial barrier would include the humans, the Animals, and the Munchkins. Those are all the species that are present in the novel so far. Other than the other animal - the non-speaking ones.
