During his adventures he is present when the Patchwork Girl is brought to life by Dr. Pipt's wife. His interference in the process helps make Scraps, the Patchword Girl, into something far more interesting than the dull house servant that Mrs. Pipt had wanted. Instead of

There could be no doubt of the fact: Princess Ozma, the lovely girl ruler of the Fairyland of Oz, was lost. She had completely disappeared. Not one of her subjects - not even her closest friends - knew what had become of her. It was Dorothy who first discovered it. Dorothy was a little Kansas girl who had come to the Land of Oz to live and had been given a delightful suite of rooms in Ozma's royal palace just because Ozma loved
...Like many of author L. Frank Baum's Oz and non-Oz novels, Rinkitink in Oz is a quest story that follows King Rinkitink and his traveling companion Princess Inga on a long and perilous journey through the land of the Nomes, and finally, to Oz itself.

Seems to me, said Cap'n Bill, as he sat beside Trot under the big acacia tree, looking out over the blue ocean, "seems to me, Trot, as how the more we know, the more we find we don't know."
"I can't quite make that out, Cap'n Bill," answered the little girl in a serious voice, after a moment's thought, during which her eyes followed those of the old sailor-man across the glassy surface of the sea. "Seems to me that all we learn

...10) The Road to Oz
The fifth novel in Baum's beloved series of stories about the magical land of Oz, The Road to Oz recounts Dorothy's fourth interlude in Oz, during which she encounters whimsically imaginative characters such as Shaggy Man, Polychrome, and Button Bright. A masterwork of imaginative fiction, this book is a must-read for fans of classic children's literature.
11) The Land of Oz
Book 2 of L. Frank Baum's immortal OZ series, in which young Tip runs away from his guardian, the witch Mombi, taking with him Jack Pumpkinhead and the wooden Saw-Horse, and flees to the Emerald City where he learns the incredible secret of his past.
Later in the series of Oz novels, author L. Frank Baum revisited some of the characters he originally introduced in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and filled in the back story and narrative arc for each of them in their own book-length feature stories. This tale follows Nick Chopper, the Tin Woodman of Oz, as he woos and pursues his Munchkin beloved and meets up with friends new and old.
13) Tik-Tok of Oz
Tik-Tok of Oz is the eighth Land of Oz book written by L. Frank Baum, published on June 19, 1914. The book actually has little to do with Tik-Tok and is primarily the quest of the Shaggy Man (introduced in The Road to Oz) to rescue his brother, and his resulting conflict with the Nome King. The endpapers of the first edition held maps: one of Oz itself, and one of the continent on which Oz and its neighboring countries belonged. These were the
...Oz, the Great Wizard! The very name of L. Frank Baums magical character conjures a world where diminutive munchkins live and work, wicked witches run riot, and the mighty Oz himself rules over an Emerald City reached by a yellow brick road. The Wizard of Oz: The First Five Novels is your passport to this marvelous realm and wonders that have enchanted readers young and old for more than a century. Lavishly illustrated by W. W. Denslow and
...15) The Wizard of Oz
Best remembered as the creator of the beloved Wizard of Oz series, L. Frank Baum was a prolific writer who penned dozens of books, many of which were intended for young readers. This fantastical tale blends the traditional elements of the Santa Claus story with a detailed back story that will enchant audiences. It's a transporting read for the holiday season or any time of the year.
Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz is the fourth book in Baum's Oz series. The series chronicles the further adventures of Dorothy both in and out of Oz, as she deals with the characters, situations and desires which continue to spill over from her first fateful adventure.
If you loved The Wizard of Oz, you can catch up on the further adventures of Dorothy, Toto, and her motley crew of compatriots in The Emerald City of Oz. One of many novels in L. Frank Baum's Oz series, this novel follows Dorothy and her family as they permanently relocate to the Land of Oz.
Inspired by Louisa May Alcott's Little Women, this book, which Wizard of Oz author L. Frank Baum wrote under the pen name Edith Van Dyne, is much in the same vein as Alcott's cozy coming-of-age tale. The first in a series, the story of this novel follows three nieces who are summoned to their wealthy aunt's estate so she can decide to whom she will bequeath her sizable inheritance. Although the girls couldn't be more different personality-wise,
