During his lifetime, L. Frank Baum wrote 14 novels and 6 short stories about his magical land of Oz. All of these works are contained in volumes 1 and 2 of this bestselling series. When he passed away in 1919, the title of "Royal Historian of Oz" passed to others in an unbroken succession of authors. The first 40 titles they wrote are now referred to as the official Oz Canon. The remaining 25 have long been out of print, with few exceptions. Only 9 are now available for the first time in a collection for those whose love of Dorothy and the magnificent land she visited always wondered 'what happened next?' The wait is over, in a one of a kind edition which includes the titles "The Royal Book of Oz", "Kabumpo in Oz", "The Wishing Horse of Oz", "Captain Salt in Oz", Handy Mandy in Oz", "The Silver Princess in Oz", "Ozoplaning with the Wizard of Oz", "The Mimics in Oz" and "The Shaggy Man of Oz". Don't let another generation pass away without discovering these long lost tales!
Ruth Plumly Thompson Knihy
Ruth Plumly Thompsonová bola celoživotná autorka detských kníh, ktorá sa preslávila najmä pokračovaním slávnej série Oz. Jej príspevky do série Oz sa vyznačujú živou fantáziou a širokou škálou farebných a neobvyklých postáv. Opakujúcim sa motívom v jej dielach je situácia, keď sa dieťa a jeho nadprirodzený spoločník ocitnú v odľahlej komunite, ktorej obyvatelia ich donútia zúčastniť sa ich jedinej, opakujúcej sa činnosti. Thompsonová tiež často rozvíjala romantické ľúbostné príbehy a jej hlavní hrdinovia boli chlapci, na rozdiel od Baumových hrdiniek.
