The Bluebird Books series captivated teenage girls in the 1910s and 1920s, starting with Mary Louise, penned by L. Frank Baum under his Edith Van Dyne pseudonym. While Baum crafted the first four novels, the series continued with contributions from other authors, all maintaining the same pseudonym. The stories explore the adventures of adolescent girl detectives, a theme Baum had previously touched on in The Daring Twins and Phoebe Daring. The title character, Mary Louise Burrows, is a remarkably mature fifteen-year-old who faces a shocking challenge her beloved grandfather is accused of ...

Non avere cervello, non aver cuore, non avere coraggio, non avere una casa. Non pensare troppo, vivere a cuor leggero, con il brivido della paura, in viaggio alla ricerca della propria casa. Viola Fior vive con voce fresca e imprevedibile la sua Dorothy (di cui è quasi coetanea): ride e piange, si incavola, gioisce e punta i piedi; ma soprattutto ride, ride e ride, contagiando tutto il racconto e portandoci per mano, assieme al suo cagnolino Totò, nella terra di oz.

A selection of short stories for the holidays including classics from Hans Christian Andersen, Tolstoy and L. Frank Baum.

Dorothy and Toto set out to help the Shaggy Man (who really is quite shaggy) and end up lost, following a strange road. Along the way they meet Button Bright, a little boy who is not really very bright at all, The Rainbow's Daughter, the Fox King and many other curious creatures including the deadly Scoodlers who want to make soup of them and the Musicker who can't stop making music. But the adventurers make their way to the Deadly Desert and cross it in a novel way to reach the Land of Oz.

Readers of all ages will welcome the chance to be reunited with Dorothy Gale and such beloved characters as the Scarecrow, Tin Woodman, and Cowardly Lion, as well as to meet new favorites such as the Hungry Tiger, whose appetite is never satisfied; Princess Langwidere, who has thirty heads; Billina, a talking chicken; and Tiktok, a mechanical man. Blown overboard while sailing with her uncle, Dorothy finds herself in the fairy realm of Ev. She sets out with her friends to rescue the Queen of Ev and her ten children, who have been imprisoned by the cruel Nome King.

"Ozma of Oz: A Record of Her Adventures with Dorothy Gale of Kansas, the Yellow Hen, the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, Tiktok, 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 third book of L. Frank Baum's "Oz" series. It was the first in which Baum was clearly intending a series of "Oz" books.

The story begins in a faraway corner of Oz, in the small country of Oogaboo. There Queen Ann Soforth musters an unlikely army and sets off to conquer the rest of Oz. Meanwhile, a girl from Oklahoma named Betsy Bobbin and her companion, Hank the mule, are shipwrecked and washed ashore in the Rose Kingdom, a magical land of talking roses. There they meet the Shaggy Man, who is on a quest to rescue his brother from the clutches of the evil Nome King.

Tik-Tok of Oz is the eighth book in the Oz series written by L. Frank Baum, published on June 19, 1914. The book has little to do with Tik-Tok and is primarily the quest of the Shaggy Man (introduced in The Road to Oz ) to rescue his brother, and his resulting conflict with the Nome King. The book was based on Baum's play The Tik-Tok Man of Oz , which was produced in Los Angeles in spring 1913. Queen Ann Soforth of Oogaboo, a small monarchy separated from the rest of Oz's Winkie Country, sets out to raise an army to conquer Oz.

A beautiful collection of four classic fairy tales told with wit and whimsy. Including the hair raising tale of "Rapunzel", a young woman locked in a high, lonely tower; the sweet "Story of Baa-Baa Black Sheep", a sheared little lamb who's desperately trying to grow more wool in order to help out a friend; the tale of the "Fisherman and His Wife", all about a poor man who discovers that his wife's greed runs as deep as the ocean; and the "Story of Gilligren and the Song of Sixpence", which tells the story behind the famous nursery rhyme.
