Frank Baum : Tik-Tok of Oz before purchasing it in order to gage whether or not it would be worth my time, and all praised Tik-Tok of Oz: 0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Another GOTTA-readBy Guy BernardI knew the Wizard of Oz story having seen the movie as a youngster.3-or-4 months ago I stumbled over the fact that there are a dozen follow-on books by Baum which I've seen referred to as "the Harry Potter of its day". At this point, I have read 8-or-9 of the series, have thoroughly enjoyed each and every one. As soon as my youngest Grandson and I finish the the the Harry Potter series, we read after school one afternoon a week, and are near the end of the 7th and final book in that series, the Wizard of Oz is next on the list - he knows it and is looking forward to it.I'm reading the Kindle editions for a couple of reasons:1 - I'm cheap, so $0.00 is a most acceptable price2 - The lack of pictures opens the door for a lot of "what do you think he/she looks like?" conversations with my Grandson which are as fun for him as they are for me.You can read the Oz books in any sequence but, like any series, characters and situations from earlier stories rear their heads. I'm a bit of a teckie-type so I tend to do things in order, and that order is included at the end of each book in the series so the answer to "What's next?" is easy.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. No pictures; many typographical errorsBy Justin J. RebbertThere are no pictures in this edition at all. Most, maybe all, of the original editions did have some pictures, which I would have liked to have seen. Also, as with the other free editions in this series, there are many typographical errors, mainly misspellings. There is also the occasional bit of text that's randomly bold for no apparent reason. I suspect that a printed copy of the book was scanned and run through OCR, with no follow-up accuracy check.The story itself is pretty good. Although all of this series is clearly written for children, it's entertaining enough for adults to enjoy reading as well. But as an adult, I couldn't help but notice that many of the characters in all of these Oz stories, including the central characters, are often conceited, arrogant, and rude, yet at the same time, quite polite about it.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Good, but not as good as BaumBy Mike LamontagneThis is Ruth Plumly Thompson's first Oz book, taking over the series after the death of L. Frank Baum. Thompson proves that she is a passable replacement for Baum - her stories are okay and she has a good grasp of the characters - but she is never able to fully capture the magic that Baum put into his stories. While much of the story focuses on the Scarecrow's adventures on Silver Island, the most interesting chapters are the ones that deal with Dorothy and Sir Hokus of Pokes (a character of Thompson's that will play a prominent role in some of her later books as well). The book tends to wander at times, making you wonder if Thompson knew exactly where she wanted to go at those points, but overall it will satisfy you if you are a fan of Oz.Mike LaMontagne, author, The Wizard of Oz: Dark Witch Rising Rainbow's Emissary (The Wizard of Oz: Dark Witch Rising) Witch Hunt (The Wizard of Oz: Dark Witch Rising) and The Carter Girls and the Battle of Frontenac Island 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. Seventeen men eventually make up the Army of Oogaboo; they march out of their valley. Glinda magically rearranges the path through the mountains and Queen Ann and her army march out of Oz into a low-lying, befogged country. Betsy Bobbin, a girl who is a year older than Dorothy Gale, and her loyal mule Hank are washed ashore during a storm. They arrive at a large greenhouse that is the domain of the Rose Kingdom, where the roses tell them that no strangers are allowed. Just as the Royal Gardener (apparently the only human allowed in this flowery kingdom) is about to pass sentence on Betsy and Hank, the Shaggy Man falls through the greenhouse's roof, and charms the Gardener into sparing all of their lives with his Love Magnet. The flowers, not having hearts, are unaffected by the Magnet, and force the travellers to leave, taking with them the newly plucked Rose Princess Ozga, a cousin of Ozma, the ruler of Oz. The Shaggy Man relates how Ozma sent him here by means of the Magic Belt because he wanted to find his brother, who went digging underground in Colorado and disappeared. He surmised that the Nome King, ruler of the underground Nome Kingdom, captured him. They meet up with Polychrome the Rainbow's Daughter; and they rescue Tik-Tok from the well where the Nome King had tossed him. Once Tik-Tok is wound up, he accompanies Betsy, Hank, the Shaggy Man, Ozga, and Polychrome to their chance encounter with Queen Ann and her army. In a rage, Queen Ann orders them to be seized and bound, but Private Files mdash; the only private in this army of generals, colonels, and majors mdash; refuses to bind innocent girls. He resigns his commission on the spot. When Queen Ann learns of the riches to be found in the Nome King's underground kingdom, she calms down and accepts the services of Tik-Tok as her new private. From Publishers WeeklyCan the queen of Oogaboo, a small country in an isolated corner of Oz, take over all of Oz?

Frank Baum, and the first to bring a girl other than Dorothy to that enchanted land. This facsimile edition features 12 color plates and nearly 80 black-and-white drawings by Oz artist John R. Neill.
