The Road to Oz
Publisher Description
An Apple Books Classic edition.
The most playful of L. Frank Baum’s Oz adventures, The Road to Oz is more of a delightful ramble than a fateful quest. At home in Kansas, Dorothy Gale and her faithful dog Toto set out to show the kindly wanderer Shaggy Man how to reach a nearby town. But the road splits into impossible paths that carry them into a series of fantastic lands.
On their journey, they meet Button-Bright, a boy who’s always lost, and Polychrome, the radiant sky fairy. Everyone’s bound for Princess Ozma’s glittering birthday celebration in the Emerald City—crossing deserts, dodging dangers, and gathering friends along the way. Cheerful and full of creative sparkle, The Road to Oz reads like a carefree trip through the brightest corners of Baum’s imagination.
