Ozma of Oz

Though I first read this book nearly 50 years ago, it still remains one of the best books I have ever read. Adults may feel that it is a kid's book, and of course it is perfect for kids, but believe me, it can be enjoyed by people of any age. All you need is love of a good story. For many years Ozma was my heroine--I dreamed that I would meet her somehow, somehow be transported like Dorothy to the Land of Oz. Though these dreams faded, I still often think that this book might be the favorite book of my life. Dorothy's new adventures, the rescue expedition from Oz that crosses the Deadly Desert, and the spooky confrontation between good and evil in the caverns of the Nome King. The Oz characters have accompanied me through life. Try them---you will never forget them.

Mostly good. I love Ozma. But alas, I do not like Dorothy, which is how I feel about Dorothy in all the Oz books.

Ozma of oz is the third novel in the wondeful Oz series. People of all ages can enjoy this novel. It is about Doroth's second adventure in the wonderful land of oz. It tells the (although light hearted)story of good vs. evil. It is highly reccomended to anyone.

Ozma of Oz is the 3rd book in The Wizard of Oz series and follows The Land of Oz. In this book, you will be reunited with many well-loved characters and be introduced to characters you will soon love.
Dorothy, who was not in the last book, again comes into this story. After being shipwrecked, she and Billina, a yellow hen, arrive on land. They wander around to see where they are and discover a new friend, Tik-Tok, a wind-up, mechanical man. They also find a castle. Inside, lives the family of Ev, who have been captured by the evil Nome king. Only a princess who can change her heads lives inside. Dorothy, Billina, and Tik-Tok decide to rescue the Ev family with the help of Ozma. --I won't mention who Ozma is because you may not have read The Land of Oz. You will find out in a later review.--
I would highly suggest this book, along with The Land of Oz because of the adventures and fun.

This is the third book in the L. Frank Baum's Oz series of books. In this book, Dorothy returns to Oz with a yellow hen, not Toto. We also find out more about Princess Ozma in this book as well as more information about the Land of Oz itself. The story line in this book was combined with the story line in The Land of Oz, the second Oz book, to be the basis of the movie "Return to Oz."
