Items related to The Land of Oz, A Sequel to The Wizard of Oz
Everybody knows "The Wizard of Oz" but Frank Baum wrote many other books about the Land of Oz which remain largely unknown outside America. These marvellous stories are now being published in their original format with John R. Neill's fine illustrations, making each book a pleasure to own as well as a delight for children to read. "The Land of Oz" is a sequel to "The Wizard of Oz" and deals entirely with the early history of Oz. No one from the United States or any part of the 'great outside world' appears in it. It takes its readers on a series of incredible adventures with Tip, a small boy who runs away from old Mombi, the witch, taking with him Jack Pumpkinhead and the wooden Saw-Horse. The Scarecrow is King of the Emerald City until he, Tip, Jack and the Tin Woodman are forced to flee the Royal palace when it is invaded by General Jinjur and her army of rebelling girls. "The Land of Oz" ends with an amazing surprise, and from that moment on Ozma is Princess of all Oz.
