Dorothy & the Wizard in Oz by L. Frank Baum audiobook.
Genre: fantasy
Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz was the fourth of 14 Oz books written by L. Frank Baum (1856-1919). Published in 1908, while Baum was resident in Coronado, California, it is considered one of the “darker” of the Oz tales. However, it also is enlivened by Baum’s considerable wit, penchant for puns, and dry social commentary. In this title, Dorothy, her kitten Eureka, Jim, a cab horse, and Zeb, a ranch hand, descend into the earth through a rift opened by an earthquake. There they encounter the “humbug” wizard who once ruled Oz. In their journey back to the earth’s surface, they meet a number of potentially dangerous magical peoples and creatures including the cold-blooded Mangaboos, invisible bears, the flying wooden Gargoyles, a den of dragonettes, and an eccentric inventor. With a little help from Ozma, the group end up in Oz where they are treated to feasts and celebrations. The animals end up humbled by a few of their experiences in Oz, where all animals can talk, and return home a little wiser.

The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame audiobook.
Genre: fantasy
This much-loved story follows a group of animal friends in the English countryside as they pursue adventure ... and as adventure pursues them! The chief characters - Mole, Rat, and Toad - generally lead upbeat and happy lives, but their tales are leavened with moments of terror, homesickness, awe, madcap antics, and derring-do.
Although classed as children’s literature, The Wind in the Willows holds a gentle fascination for adults too. The vocabulary is decidedly not “Dick and Jane”, and a reader with a love of words will find new ones to treasure, even if well-equipped for the journey. Parents will appreciate the themes of loyalty, manners, self-restraint, and comradeship which are evident throughout the book. When the characters err, they are prompt to acknowledge it, and so a reading of this book can model good behavior to children, who will otherwise be enchanted with the many ways in which the lives of these bucolic characters differ from modern life.
This book was so successful that it enabled the author to retire from banking and take up a country life somewhat like that of his creations. It has been adapted for screen, stage, and even a ride at the original Disneyland.

Glinda of Oz by L. Frank Baum audiobook.
Genre: fantasy
In Glinda of Oz, L. Frank Baum returns to the magical Land of Oz for a tale that begins with a burst of danger on its borders. When troubling news arrives from the far south, Ozma the ruler of Oz calls on familiar friends for help, and Dorothy Gale sets out alongside the wise Sorceress Glinda and other companions to investigate. Their journey leads them into the wild and mysterious Quadling Country, where old grudges and new threats simmer beneath a beautiful landscape. As they press deeper, the travelers encounter strange creatures, hidden strongholds, and powerful magic that can imprison as easily as it can protect. Glinda must balance mercy with justice, Dorothy must keep her courage in the face of enchantments, and Ozma must decide how far Oz should go to stop cruelty beyond its own gates. Blending humor, wonder, and a darker undercurrent of peril, this late Oz adventure explores what it means to be responsible for others, and how kindness and bravery can stand against fear and tyranny.
