The Scarecrow of Oz
Publisher Description
An Apple Books Classic edition.
A shipwreck, a whirlpool, and a flight on the back of a strange creature with a propeller tail—The Scarecrow of Oz sends a new pair of travelers on one of L. Frank Baum’s most action-packed adventures. Peg-legged sailor Cap’n Bill and his young friend Trot get swept from the California coast into a hidden corner of Oz, where a cruel king rules all and a princess’ heart has been frozen by magic.
With help from the cheerful wanderer Button-Bright and the beloved Scarecrow himself, the travelers face witches, magical transformations, and rebellion in the lost frontier of Jinxland. Brave, romantic, and full of energy, The Scarecrow of Oz was Baum’s own favorite of his tales. This bold adventure celebrates courage, loyalty, and the joy of setting things right.
