The Road to Oz is a classic children's book written by L. Frank Baum, the author of the beloved Wizard of Oz series. In this book, young Dorothy returns to the magical land of Oz, where she meets new friends and embarks on a journey to the Emerald City. Along the way, she encounters a host of strange and wonderful creatures, including a talking hen, a living mechanical man, and a group of mischievous fairies. With her companions, Dorothy faces a series of challenges and obstacles, including a wicked witch and a treacherous desert, but ultimately learns important lessons about friendship, courage, and the power of imagination. Filled with whimsical illustrations and charming characters, The Road to Oz is a delightful adventure story that has captivated generations of readers.A little girl, radiant and beautiful, shapely as a fairy and exquisitely dressed, was dancing gracefully in the middle of the lonely road, whirling slowly this way and that, her dainty feet twinkling in sprightly fashion. She was clad in flowing, fluffy robes of soft material that reminded Dorothy of woven cobwebs, only it was colored in soft tintings of violet, rose, topaz, olive, azure, and white, mingled together most harmoniously in stripes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Autorenporträt
Lyman Frank Baum (1856 - 1919), better known by his pen name L. Frank Baum, was an American author chiefly known for his children's books, particularly The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. He wrote thirteen novel sequels, nine other fantasy novels and a host of other works (55 novels in total, plus four "lost works", 83 short stories, over 200 poems, an unknown number of scripts, and many miscellaneous writings). His works anticipated such century-later commonplaces as television, augmented reality, laptop computers (The Master Key), wireless telephones (Tik-Tok of Oz), women in high risk, action-heavy occupations (Mary Louise in the Country), and the ubiquity of advertising on clothing (Aunt Jane's Nieces at Work).
