Book 31 in The Wizard of Oz
Ruth Plumly Thompson fue una escritora de libros infantiles de toda la vida, célebre por continuar la querida serie de Oz. Sus contribuciones a Oz se caracterizan por una imaginación vívida y una colorida y variada gama de personajes inusuales. Un hilo narrativo recurrente presenta a un niño y su compañero sobrenatural tropezando con una comunidad aislada cuyos habitantes los obligan a participar en una actividad única y repetitiva. Thompson también se inclinó por las historias de amor romántico y presentó a niños como protagonistas, a diferencia de los personajes infantiles predominantemente femeninos de entregas anteriores.


Book 31 in The Wizard of Oz
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!
