It was published on June 18, 1908 and reunites Dorothy with the humbug Wizard from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. This is one of only two of the original fourteen Oz books Dorothy Gale is gladly joining her Uncle Henry in California to visit relatives who live at Hugson's Ranch, after their vacation from Australia in Ozma of Oz. Dorothy meets Hugson's nephew who is her second cousin, Zeb of Hugson's Ranch. Dorothy, Eureka (her cat) and Zeb are riding a buggy being pulled by a cab-horse named Jim when a violent earthquake strikes. A crevice opens in the ground beneath them and they fall deep into the Earth.Dorothy, Eureka, Jim, Zeb, and the buggy land in the underground Land of the Mangaboos, a race of vegetable people who grow on vines. The Mangaboos accuse them of causing the earthquake, which has damaged many of their glass buildings. Just as they are about to be sentenced to death by the Mangaboos, a hot air balloon randomly descends, and in the basket is the former Wizard of Oz, whom Dorothy last saw as he floated away into the sky from the Emerald City at the end of the earlier book The Wizard of Oz.The Wizard demonstrates his (humbug) magic powers, first, by "conjuring" nine tiny, mouse-sized piglets (actually taking them from his pocket by sleight-of-hand), and then, by lighting a fire, which is a phenomenon unknown to the Mangaboos. Impressed, the Mangaboo prince gives him a temporary job as court wizard, but the death sentence is only postponed until a new, native Mangaboo wizard grows ripe enough to serve. Eureka asks for permission to eat one of the piglets, but the Wizard angrily refuses to allow this. The Mangaboo people eventually drive the travelers out of their country into a dark tunnel, which leads to another kingdom."Dorothy and Ozma", a watercolor plate from the bookThey pass through the tunnel into a beautiful green valley. They enter a seemingly empty cottage and are welcomed by invisible people, for they have entered the Valley of Voe, whose inhabitants are able to remain invisible by eating a magic fruit, and use their invisibility to hide from marauding bears. In order to avoid being eaten by the bears, the travelers move on.The companions climb Pyramid Mountain, and meet the Braided Man, a manufacturer of holes, flutters (guaranteed to make any flag flutter on a windless day), and rustles for silk dresses. After exchanging gifts with him, the travelers continue upwards into the Land of the Gargoyles, which are hostile, silent, flying monsters made of wood. The travelers are able, at first, to repel their attack successfully because the Gargoyles are frightened by loud noises. However, the travelers are soon out of breath and unable to make more noise, so the Gargoyles capture them. After recuperating from the fight, the travelers manage to escape, and enter another tunnel.After a close encounter with a family of baby dragons, they find themselves trapped in a cave with no exit. The Wizard, Zeb, and the animals all fear that they will die of thirst, but Dorothy reveals that she has an arrangement with Princess Ozma: each day at four o'clock, Ozma uses her magic picture to see what Dorothy is doing, and if Dorothy gives a certain visual hand-signal, Ozma will use her magic belt to transport Dorothy out of danger to the Emerald City. In this way, the travelers are rescued.Soon after renewing his acquaintance with the Emerald City staff and making the acquaintance of Ozma and her courtiers, the Wizard elects to remain in Oz permanently, planning to learn real magic from Glinda the good witch. He demonstrates his piglet-trick in a magic show, and gives one of the piglets to Ozma as a pet. The others stay for an extended visit, whose highlights include a race between the wooden Saw-Horse and Jim, which the Sawhorse wins.

Book excerpt: About 'Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz': A California earthquake sends Dorothy Gale and her new friends--Zeb the farm boy, Jim the cab-horse, and Eureka the mischievous kitten--tumbling through a crack in the ground. Deep beneath the earth, Dorothy is reunited with her old friend the Wizard of Oz and his troupe of nine tiny piglets.Together, Dorothy, the Wizard, and their friends travel through many fantastic lands, where they encounter the Mangaboos, people growing like vegetables in the ground; cross the Valley of Voe, where dama-fruit has turned everyone invisible; and are captured by mysterious flying Gargoyles. At last, the intrepid travellers reach Oz, where they have many unforgettable encounters with such favourites as the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman, the Cowardly Lion and the Hungry Tiger, Princess Ozma and the wooden Sawhorse.About Oz Series: The Oz books form a book series that begins with The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and that relates the "history" of the Land of Oz. Oz was originally created by author L. Frank Baum, who went on to write fourteen Oz books. Although most of the Oz books are strictly adventures, Baum-as well as many later Oz authors-styled themselves as "Royal Historians" of Oz. Later authors wrote 26 other "official" books after Baum's death. Many other authors have put their own twists on Oz, notably Gregory Maguire's revisionist Wicked.Source: WikipediaAbout Lyman Frank Baum: Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 - May 6, 1919) was an American author chiefly famous for his children's books, particularly The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and its sequels. He wrote 14 novels in the Oz series, plus 41 other novels, 83 short stories, over 200 poems, and at least 42 scripts. He made numerous attempts to bring his works to the stage and the nascent medium of film; the 1939 adaptation of the first Oz book would become a landmark of 20th-century cinema. 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 and action-heavy occupations (Mary Louise in the Country), and the ubiquity of advertising on clothing (Aunt Jane's Nieces at Work).All "Oz" Series is available on Amazon: Series#1 The Wonderful Wizard of OzSeries#2 The Marvelous Land of OzSeries#3 Ozma of OzSeries#4 Dorothy and the Wizard in OzSeries#5 The Road to OzSeries#6 The Emerald City of OzSeries#7 The Patchwork Girl of OzSeries#8 Tik-Tok of OzSeries#9 The Scarecrow of OzSeries#10 Rinkitink in OzSeries#11 The Lost Princess of OzSeries#12 The Tin Woodman of OzSeries#13 The Magic of OzSeries#14 Glinda of OzSeries#15 The Royal Book of OzSeries#16 Abducted to OzSeries#17 Dorothy's Mystical Adventures in OzSeries#18 The Forest Monster of OzThese books have re-edited for correction of any kind of grammatical errors for your clear understanding at the time of when you read.

The children won't let me stop telling tales of the Land of Oz. I know lots of other stories, and I hope to tell them, some time or another; but just now my loving tyrants won't allow me. They cry: "Oz-Oz! more about Oz, Mr. Baum!" and what can I do but obey their commands? This is Our Book-mine and the children's. For they have flooded me with thousands of suggestions in regard to it, and I have honestly tried to adopt as many of these suggestions as could be fitted into one story. After the wonderful success of "Ozma of Oz" it is evident that Dorothy has become a firm fixture in these Oz stories. The little ones all love Dorothy, and as one of my small friends aptly states: "It isn't a real Oz story without her." So here she is again, as sweet and gentle and innocent as ever, I hope, and the heroine of another strange adventure.

Book excerpt: In the novel, Dorothy is young farm girl living with her Aunt Em and Uncle Henry on the Kansas prairie. Their one room home has a storm shelter underground and Dorothy's bed is in the corner. Dorothy's best friend and playmate is her loyal dog Toto. When a tornado strikes, Aunt Em heads yells for Dorothy to get into the storm shelter, but she delays because her beloved Toto is under her bed. The entire house is lifted into the air and carried for miles by the cyclone with Dorothy and Toto inside. The frightened and exhausted Dorothy falls asleep. Dorothy wakes up in the beautiful, colorful Munchkin Territory in the Land of Oz. A group of three very short men approach her. They are joined by The Witch of the North who thanks Dorothy for killing the Wicked Witch of the East, the evil ruler of the Munchkins. Unbeknownst to Dorothy, her house had landed on the Wicked Witch of the East and killed her. The legs of the Wicked Witch of the East stick out from under the house, shod in silver shoes. The Witch of the North presents the shoes to Dorothy. Dorothy is very confused and does not understand where she is. She does not remember killing anyone. And she believes that all witches are evil. The Witch of the North explains that there are good witches and evil witches. The Witches of the North and South are good, while those of the East and West are evil. She also mentions a Great Wizard named Oz. Dorothy asks the Witch of the North and the munchkins how to get home to Kansas. The Witch of the North tells her to follow the yellow brick road to Oz, as the Great Wizard might know what to do. She kisses Dorothy to grant hersafe passage for her journey to Oz. Before setting off on her journey, Dorothy changes into a blue gingham dress and the silver slippers. On her journey, Dorothy sees a Scarecrow in a field, who gives her a friendly wink. After her initial surprise, she helps the Scarecrow off his pole and introduces herself and explains where she is going. The Scarecrow asks to join Dorothy on her journey to Oz so that he can ask the wizard for a brain, instead of a head of straw. Dorothy, Toto, and the Scarecrow continue on their journey to Oz together. While drinking and bathing in a forest in a stream, a rusted Tin Woodman appears. The Tin Woodman is thrilled when Dorothy oils his joints and he can finally move again. After hearing that they are going to Oz, the Tin Woodman asks if he can join them to ask the Wizard of Oz for a heart. Joined now by the Tin Woodman, the group walks deeper into the frightening woods. A large lion jumps out and is about to attack Toto. Dorothy saves Toto by slapping the lion on his nose and yelling at him not to bite her dog. The Cowardly Lion apologizes and explains that to hide his cowardice he roars to scare everyone. He asks to join them on their journey to Oz to ask the wizard for courage. Dorothy, Toto and their three companions finally reach Oz and are taken to see the wizard one by one. Dorothy explains to the wizard how she got the silver shoes and the mark on her head and asks for help to get home to Kansas. Oz says he will only grant their wishes if they kill the Wicked Witch of the West. They travel to the land of the Winkies to kill the witch. The Wicked Witch attacks Dorothy and her friends with wolves and crows, which they are able to fight off. The witch uses a Golden Cap to send winged monkeys to enslave the Lion, drop the Tin Woodman on sharp rocks and break apart the Scarecrow. Dorothy is captured and forced to work in the witch's kitchen. The witch wants Dorothy's powerful silver shoes, but cannot figure out how to take them from her. The witch trips Dorothy with an invisible bar, which causes a shoe to fall off. Angered, Dorothy throws a bucket of water on the witch which causes the witch to melt away. Dorothy reunites with her friends and heads back to Oz to ask the Wizard to fulfill his end of their ba...

Book excerpt: The Wizard, Dorothy, and Adventure!Dorothy Gale is glady joining her Uncle Henry in California to visit relatives who live at Hugson''s Ranch, after their vacation from Australia in Ozma of Oz. Dorothy meets Hugson''s nephew who is her second cousin, Zeb of Hugson''s Ranch. Dorothy, Eureka (her cat) and Zeb are riding a buggy being pulled by a cab-horse named Jim when a violent earthquake hits and starts to open a crevice beneath them that sends them all hurtling deep into the chasm, being swallowed by the bowels of the Earth. Dorothy, Eureka, Jim, Zeb, and the buggy alight into the Land of the Mangaboos, a race of cold, heartless people made entirely of vegetables and who accuse them of causing the "Rain of Stones" which has destroyed and shattered their glass kingdom. The Wizard of Oz also arrives there with his piglets, but the Mangaboos evict them from their country. They then make their way through a series of dangerous lands trying to find their way back to the surface of the earth, and home. They stray through the Valley of Voe, which is colonized by invisible, deadly bears. They soon learn how to walk on water to escape the bears. They make their way through the inside of a mountain and emerge in a dead and soundless world inhabited by wooden, flying gargoyles. Escaping these menacing creatures, they find themselves in a den of young dragons. Finally, just when it seems they are doomed to die imprisoned in yet another underground cave, Princess Ozma sees their difficulty and rescues them; she uses the Magic Belt to bring them to the Land of Oz. Safely back in the Emerald City they renew old friendships, but are interrupted when one of the piglets is missing. Dorothy''s ill-mannered kitten is accused in the mystery and a murder trial ensues, with the Wogglebug as the prosecutor and the Scarecrow as the defense attorney. But all ends well and Dorothy, Eureka, Zeb, and Jim return to their homes on the earth''s surface after this intriguing adventure. Facts and Trivia1.

This is one of only two of the original fourteen Oz books (the other being The Emerald City of Oz (1910), to be illustrated with watercolor paintings. Baum, having resigned himself to writing a series of Oz books, set up elements of this book in the prior Ozma of Oz (1907). He was not entirely pleased with this, as the introduction to Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz opens with the protest that he knows many tales of many lands, and hoped that children would permit him to tell them those tales. Written shortly after the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and around the time Baum moved to California, the book starts with an earthquake in California. Dorothy and others are swallowed up by cracks in the earth, and fall into an underground cavern, where they begin their adventures. Very little of the story-six of the twenty chapters-actually takes place in Oz. As in Ozma of Oz before it, and in some of the books after, Oz is not the land where the adventures take place, but the land the characters are seeking as a refuge from adventure. The book was dedicated to Harriet Alvena Baum Neal, the author's eldest sister.
