Frank Baum continues his Oz series with The Marvelous Land of Oz (now known as The Land of Oz). In this new Oz adventure, Baum brings back favorite characters such as the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman, and introduces memorable new characters, such as Jack Pumpkinhead, the Saw-Horse, the flying Gump and the Woggle-Bug. This story also features the first collaboration between L. Frank Baum and John R. Neill, who worked together to produce Baum’s remaining thirteen Oz books. L. Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 – May 6, 1919) was an American author of children's books, best known for writing the Oz series, beginning with The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and its sequel, The Marvelous Land of Oz. He wrote fourteen Oz books in all, and a host of other plays and novels. His works predicted such century-later commonplaces as television, laptop computers, wireless telephones, and women in high risk, action-heavy occupations.The Marvelous Land of Oz is the 2nd book in the Oz series.
