Quixotic is Never the Queen of the Field Mice!

Quietly I have never been as I proclaim my fondness for the Queen of the Field Mice. She is tied for the lead as my favorite Oz character from the world of Oz created by L. Frank Baum!

 

One of the things  that tends to irritate me is when reprints of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900) leave out Her Majesty; Queen of the Field Mice and Her subjects. While Dorothy finds the Ozian mice pleasant enough, Toto always had issues!

It was by Her grace and gratitude that the Cowardly Lion was saved from the Field of the Poppies.

 

I guess it was easier to make it snow and put Dorothy to sleep as well rather than put mice onscreen in 1939.

Gotta love the poppies!
