Frank Baum isn't even listed). If you do have a copy of "The Road" maybe we can arrange an exchange of similar books. I also have numerous dvds along the lines of "Wonderfalls," "Coupling," "The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.," "Firefly," etc. Good luck with the goings on at your school. My boss asked me to help outline a series of books to use when we move away from the franchise in a few months. As I have mostly been using certain books other than the franchise garbage for the last couple of years, it won't be very hard to put together that list.
