The Emerald City of Oz: 1910

eBook ( Nov. 1, 2016)
In The Emerald City of Oz, published in 1910, Dorothy Gale and her Uncle Henry and Aunt Em move to Oz permanently. John R. Neill provided the illustrations for the sixth Oz book, which Baum intended to be his last. The book begins with Uncle Henry deep in debt. Both uncle and aunt doubt Dorothy’s tales of her adventures, but Dorothy enlightens them by asking Ozma to transport them to the Emerald City using the magic belt she had captured from the Nome King. For the first time, Baum employs double plots. While Dorothy and her aunt and uncle tour the Quadling Country, the Nome King, Roquat, readies a massive army along with allied forces for invading the Land of Oz. Dorothy and her companions meet a variety of fascinating creatures, including living cutout paper dolls, talkative Rigmaroles, living kitchen utensils in Utensia, civilized rabbits of Bunnybury and more. Meanwhile, the Nome King plots revenge with his allies, the horrifying Whimsies and Growleywogs and the notoriously evil, Phanfasms.
