Other editions of book The Incredible Ozma of Oz

"In the light of 21st-century problems . . . Baum's lessons seem especially relevant."—The New York Times Originally published over 100 years ago, L. Frank Baum’s beloved Wizard of Oz series continues to delight and enchant readers today. In the third book of the classic children’s series, Dorothy makes her return to the fantastical land of Oz, reuniting with her dear friends the Tinman, Scarecrow, and Cowardly Lion from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and greeting new friends introduced in The Marvelous Land of Oz. In Ozma of Oz, Dorothy is traveling aboard a boat with her Uncle Henry, when she is washed overboard in a storm along with a yellow chicken named Billina. When they come ashore and Billina speaks to Dorothy, the young girl realizes that they’ve definitely arrived in a “fairy country”—but it isn’t Oz! After being chased by Wheelers, evil creatures with wheels for hands and feet, Dorothy and Billina meet Tik-Tok, a mechanical man who informs them that they are in the Land of Ev. Tik-Tok then takes the two to the ruling leader of the land, a vain princess with detachable heads. When Dorothy refuses to give the spoiled royal her head for her collection, the princess throws the girl into her tower dungeon. Luckily, Princess Ozma and her Royal Court of Oz are on their way! This handsome, affordable edition contains original full-color artwork by John R. Neill. Experience a classic in its truest form, and pick up this beautiful new edition of The Incredible Ozma of Oz.

Ozma of Oz: A Record of Her Adventures with Dorothy Gale of Kansas, Billina the Yellow Hen, the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, Tik-Tok, the Cowardly Lion and the Hungry Tiger; Besides Other Good People Too Numerous to Mention Faithfully Recorded Herein, published on July 30, 1907, was the official third book of L. Frank Baum's Oz series. It was the first in which Baum was clearly intending a series of Oz books.

It is the first Oz book where the majority of the action takes place outside of the Land of Oz. Only the final two chapters take place in Oz itself. This reflects a subtle change in theme: in the first book, Oz is the dangerous land through which Dorothy must win her way back to Kansas; in the third, Oz is the end and aim of the book. Dorothy's desire to return home is not as desperate as in the first book, and it is her uncle's need for her rather than hers for him that makes her return.

Ozma of Oz (version 3) 1. The Girl in the Chicken Coop The wind blew hard and joggled the water of the ocean, sending ripples across its surface. Then the wind pushed the edges of the ripples until they became waves, and shoved the waves around until they became billows. The billows rolled dreadfully high: higher even than the tops of houses. Some of them, indeed, rolled as high as the tops of tall trees, and seemed like mountains; and the gulfs between the great billows were like deep valleys. All this mad dashing and splashing of the waters of the big ocean, which the mischievous wind caused without any good reason whatever, resulted in a terrible storm, and a storm on the ocean is liable to cut many queer pranks and do a lot of damage. At the time the wind began to blow, a ship was sailing far out upon the waters. When the waves began to tumble and toss and to grow bigger and bigger the ship rolled up and down, and tipped sidewise--first one way and then the other--and was jostled around so roughly that even the sailor-men had to hold fast to the ropes and railings to keep themselves from being swept away by the wind or pitched headlong into the sea.
