| Publisher Description: Not the first translation of Baum's world famed book 'The Wonderful Wizard of Oz' in Dutch, but the first of a series of translations for all of the original L. Frank Baum Oz books, collected in the series: 'De Kronieken van Oz'. De Kronieken van Oz is de Nederlandse vertalingenreeks van de 17 oorspronkelijke Oz boeken van de Amerikaanse schrijver L. Frank Baum. Bewandel de weg met de gele steentjes en volg Doortje en haar vrienden, zoals de Blikken Man, de Vogelverschrikker, Sjaak Pompoenstaak, Prinses Ozma en vele anderen, op hun avonturen in het wonderlijke Land van Oz als zij het opnemen tegen gevaarlijke tegenstanders In dit eerste boek wordt Doortje, een gewoon meisje uit het grauwe Kansas, door een wervelwind naar het wonderlijke Land van Oz gebracht waar ze op zoek gaat naar een Grote Tovenaar om hem te vragen of hij haar naar huis kan brengen. Onderweg komt Doortje vele kleurrijke figuren tegen en beleeft ze de spannendste avonturen die een klein meisje uit Kansas ooit zal kunnen beleven. Dit wereldberoemde sprookje betekende in 1900 de definitieve doorbraak van de Amerikaanse schrijver en journalist Lyman Frank Baum. Dit verhaal zou in tientallen verfilmingen en musicals de hele wereld overgaan. Baum schreef op verzoek van zijn lezers nog zeker 16 vervolgverhalen die allemaal in deze reeks gepoogd opgenomen te worden. |

Jeroen grew up in the village of Heemskerk and went to special educational primary school and thereafter went to Clussius College Secondary agricultural school and finally to Clusius College Hoorn MLTuS college of agriculture where he studied (TMR) Technician, Forest-, Park- and Greenkeeping and Tourism. Jeroen worked as a local journalist, editor and presenter at two local radio/tv stations and has worked for many years as a cleaner and exterminator. He was diagnosed with dyslexia in 2001 and with Autism in 2008. Both of which explained the many troubles Jeroen had to face as child. In March of 2013 he published a book on Autism in collaboration with 27 so called Autithors. He currently works as a writer, poet, translator, and aspires to be a composer, and currently runs his own (book) publishing company. Books: Jeroen's publishing company's English lingual publications include titles such as the 'Lembas Extra' communiqué of the Dutch Tolkien Society (Unquendor) and Peter Kenny's seconde edition of 'Dreams of Another Land'. The company's Dutch publications include titles such as 'De Qualia en het Spectrum' by Dutch poet Jeroen Besseling, 'Het is gelukkig niet bewolkt vandaag' by Dutch poet Bob Blinkhof, and the second edition of 'De wereld om met autisme'. Amongst Jeroen's own projects he invests lots of time and effort into the first ever attempt to translate and publish all of L. Frank Baum's 'Wizard of Oz' books into Dutch. Music: Jeroen took one year of (then) mandatory recorder lessons as young child prior to taking keyboard -not piano- lessons from Mr. Peter Stam at the Heemskerk School of Music between 1991 and 2002. In that era Jeroen started to compose his own music, at first, he started out by putting existing music together and eventually wrote his first composition in 1998 at the age of 17. Currently Jeroen is under the 'reasoning and guidance' of esteemed composer Mr. Paul Corfield Godfrey (Wales). Jeroen's recent musical works include a 'Requiem for Spock', for (Vulcan) lyrette and (Earth) violoncello, dedicated to the memory of Star Trek actor Leonard Nimoy and a setting of the 'De profundis' poem for organ, timpany and choir (SATB). Jeroen also set to music a few poems from the Frysian translation of The Hobbit (as translated by Anne Tjerk Popkema).Baum, Lyman Frank: - "Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 - May 6, 1919), better known as L. Frank Baum, was an American author chiefly famous for his children's books, particularly The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and its sequels. He wrote a total of 14 novels in the Oz series, plus 41 other novels, 83 short stories, over 200 poems, and at least 42 scripts. (Source: Wiki)" |
