Ozma of Oz

First published in 1900, L. Frank Baum's original Oz novel is one of the world's most beloved, enduring fantasy classics -- and, perhaps not as recognized as it ought to be for establishing a new, wholly-American sort of mythology. "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" has been translated into more than forty languages, and of course, served as the basis for one of history's most popular films, "The Wizard of Oz," first released in 1939. "Ozma of Oz" is the third "Oz" book, published in 1907. In this story, Dorothy is shipwrecked in a wondrous land on her way to Australia. The land is not Oz, however, but another magical land that has a perilous Deadly Desert and also many marvelous things. "Ozma of Oz" introduces wonderful new characters like Tik-Tok the wind-up man, and the Hungry Tiger -- yet another adventurous delight.Baum, L. Frank is the author of 'Ozma of Oz', published 2007 under ISBN 9781603128322 and ISBN 1603128328.
