The Lost Princess of Oz

Authouress: Frank Baum
Publisher: The Reily & Lee Co. Chicago
Date: 1917

Review:
Unbeknown to me, Frank Baum had written an assortment of books that centred on the fabled land of Oz. A range of stories that were motivated by his young readers creative imagination. As he explains it;

"Some of my youthful readers are developing wonderful imaginations. This pleases me. Imagination has brought mankind through the dark ages to its' present state of civilisation".

In this instalment we find Dorothy living in the land of Oz with a group of close friends. All of which had been introduced through earlier books. With the Fairy Princess gone missing and strange events taking place, it is up to this curious group of friends to find the Princess and return Oz to what passes for everyday fun for those who live there.

Fun and entertaining reading for all ages.
