| Publisher Description: Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 - May 6, 1919) is one of America's most read authors, and he is widely considered one of the premier authors of children's books. Baum wrote dozens of novels and short stories, as well as hundreds of poems, and he even foresaw technological innovations such as computers, televisions and mobile phones, all of which made their way into his writing. Baum, however, is still best known and best regarded for The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and several other titles that took place in the fantasy world of Oz. Every American is familiar with Dorothy and Toto, and Oz has been adapted for movies, screenplays, and more ever since. This is the tenth book in the series. Rinkitink in Oz is the 10th book of the Oz series, but Baum had written it years earlier with the intention of making it a stand-alone novel separate of Oz. For that reason, the characters so familiar to readers don't appear until near the very end. |
