Book Description
"As a writer, Baum rarely knew when to quit, unfurling marvel after marvel..."—The New Yorker Originally published 115 years ago, this lesser-known but equally enchanting sequel to The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is sure to continue the delights wrought by the first of L. Frank Baum’s classic children’s series. We rejoin the Tinman, the Scarecrow, Glinda the Good Witch, and more in this fantastical book. In The Marvelous Land of Oz, we are welcomed back to the Land of Oz after Dorothy Gale has been whisked back to Kansas. We are introduced to Tip, a young orphan boy who has been under the guardianship of a Wicked Witch, Mombi, for as long as he can remember. Tip plans to get his revenge with a wooden man that he has made using a jack-o’-lantern as a head. Unfortunately, the witch is not fooled and threatens to turn Tip into a statue using the “Powder of Life.” Rather than staying to be turned into a statue, Tip runs away after stealing the Powder of Life from Mombi, using it to animate a sawhorse for Jack to ride. Thus begins Tips adventures as he journeys to the Emerald City, escapes revolts, and learns just who the true ruler of Oz is. This handsome, affordable edition contains original full-color artwork by John R. Neill. Experience a classic in its truest form, and pick up this beautiful new edition of The Marvelous Land of Oz.

Book Description
The Marvelous Land of Oz: Being an Account of the Further Adventures of the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman, commonly shortened to The Land of Oz, published on July 5, 1904, is the second of L. Frank Baum's books set in the Land of Oz, and the sequel to The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. The events are set shortly after the events in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and after Dorothy Gale's departure back to Kansas. The protagonist of the novel is an orphan boy called Tip. For as long as he can remember, Tip has been under the guardianship of a cruel Wicked Witch named Mombi and lives in the northern quadrant of Oz called Gillikin Country. Mombi has always been extremely mean and abusive to Tip. As Mombi is returning home one day, Tip plans to get revenge and frighten her with a wooden man he has made, with a large Jack-o'-lantern he carves for a head, thus naming him Jack Pumpkinhead. To Tip's dismay, Mombi is not fooled by this trick, and she takes this opportunity to demonstrate the new magical "Powder of Life" that she had just obtained from another sorcerer. Mombi tells Tip that she intends to transform him into a marble statue to punish him for his mischievous ways.

Book Description
This fully annotated volume collects three of Baum's fourteen Oz novels in which he developed his utopian vision and which garnered an immense and loyal following. The Wizard of Oz (1900) introduces Dorothy, who arrives from Kansas and meets the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, the Cowardly Lion, and a host of other characters. The Emerald City of Oz (1910) finds Dorothy, Aunt Em, and Uncle Henry coming to Oz just as the wicked Nome King is plotting to conquer its people. In Baum's final novel, Glinda of Oz (1920), Dorothy and Princess Ozma try to prevent a battle between the Skeezers and the Flatheads. Tapping into a deeply rooted desire in himself and his loyal readers to live in a peaceful country which values the sharing of talents and gifts, Baum's imaginative creation, like all great utopian literature, holds out the possibility for change. Also included is a selection of the original illustrations by W. W. Denslow and John R. Neill. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.
