Narrative To Books The Magic of Oz (Oz #13)

In this witty and imaginative tale, the “Royal Historian of Oz,” L. Frank Baum, takes young readers back across The Great Sandy Desert for more exciting adventures in the wondrous Land of Oz. Old friends such as Dorothy, the Wizard, and the Cowardly Lion reappear, along with endearing new characters — the Glass Cat, the Hungry Tiger, Little Trot, Cap’n Bill, the Lonesome Duck, and others.
Seeking special birthday presents to express their devotion to the wise and beautiful Princess Ozma, the friends venture beyond the Emerald City and into unknown territory. Little Trot and Cap’n Bill find themselves stuck — literally! — on an enchanted island, while Dorothy and the Wizard uncover a treasonous plot. It seems that Kiki Aru, the foolish son of a magician, and Ruggedo, the evil King of the Nomes, intend to recruit an army of forest-dwelling beasts, overthrow Princess Ozma, and enslave the citizens of Oz. Can Dorothy and the Wizard foil the conspirators’ plans and rescue their stranded comrades? You’ll find out in the pages of this exciting story.
Graced by a wonderful array of original black-and-white drawings by John R. Neill, as well as 12 captivating full-color plates, this spirited tale will thrill readers of all ages.

(Reprinted from the Chicago Center for Literature and Photography [cclapcenter.com:]. I am the original author of this essay, as well as the owner of CCLaP; it is not being reprinted here illegally. This review covers all 14 of the Baum Oz books, which is why it's found on all 14 book pages here.)I think it's fairly safe by now to assume that nearly everyone in Western society is familiar with The Wizard of Oz, most of us because of the classic 1939 movie adaptation; and many realize as well

Ugh. Baum is definitely back to his old tricks with this one. Another pointless story related to celebrating Ozma's birthday. If Baum had to pick one of his Oz books to reprise, why on earth did he pick The Road to Oz, which in my opinion is the worst one?! I rated this one slightly better because there was a little bit more of an actual story, and two major plotlines were woven together pretty well. However, I didn't like the expanded use of magic in this one - if they can pull out magic to get

Kids, learn this word: "Pyrzqxgl!" It's right up there with "xyzzy" in importance. I can't tell you how to pronounce it since I've never heard it spoken, but keep trying different ways and you might suddenly hit on it. (If you do, kindly drop me a message and let me know.)I think my favorite secondary character in this book is the Lonesome Duck. He's arrogant, selfish, and misanthropic, but I kind of like him. Also I really want that Magic Flower.As a nice side note, Baum dedicated this

Doma Publishing's Wizard of Oz collection has taken me several years to read with my son at bedtime. It was interesting revisiting the texts that I read swiftly through my youth, as I was about his age when I read them and remembered little beyond some of the characters that don't appear in any of the books. I picked up a copy of this version since, for 99c, I could have the complete series along with "All the original artwork by the great illustrator W.W. Denslow (over 1,000 classic

Ah the return of Ruggedo the Nome King! To me he is the best villain of the entire series. He is ruthless and intelligent and is on an ever present quest for revenge against Ozma and the people of Oz.This book had the potential to be my favorite of the Oz series, but, alas, the end of the book was just a little boring and uber predictable. The first three quarters set up a very good story. The players of Oz (This is probably the thing I like most about the series. Baum adds more characters in

To be perfectly honest the only thing really significant about this book was that with the conclusion there is only one book left in the series. That is the claw marks left when finishing the thirteenth book. When examining the wounds from book thirteen, the reader begins to see the scratches are deeper than mere flesh wounds. The book was interesting just as the twelve prior books, but other than the lonesome duck it didnt seem to add much value to the series. But the value that the duck

Ruggedo makes another appearance in this story, as do Cap'n Bill, Trot, and the Glass Cat. Young Kiki Aru is an interesting character--early in the book he says "I didn't know I was being wicked, but if I was, I'm glad of it. I hate good people. I've always wanted to be wicked, but I didn't know how." Yikes. He is eerily emotionally detatched from his role in Ruggedo's plans to take over Oz, though he agrees to them without much persuasion. He has great power with his knowledge of the
