The Patchwork Girl of Oz is the story of Ojo's quest to find the exotic, and often dangerous, ingredients necessary to make a potion that will unpetrify his beloved Unk Nunkie. 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 becoming a household servant Scraps accompanies Ojo on his many adventures. Along the way they meet the Woozy and Bungle the glass cat. But Even with Scraps help, can Ojo save his beloved Unk Nunkie? This lavishly illustrated edition has more than one hundred of the original John R. Neill illustration.

However, one of those motley...
Baum was forced to return to the Oz series due to some financial pressures. And aren't we glad he did. The series was floundering a bit with the 4th and 5th installments, but was tightened up with the 6th and presumably final installment. This, I think, was a boon to rest of the series.The basic ...
