4-6Books of Wonder series.
Illustrated by
John R. Neill.
Dorothy, the Wizard, and the Emerald City's other celebrated denizens set off to find their beloved Princess Ozma, who has disappeared. A series of adventures leads the group to the kidnapper, a Winkie shoemaker who has designs on ruling Oz himself. While the mystery is tidily wrapped up with a moral, fans of the Oz series won't mind. Color plates and profuse black-and-white drawings illustrate the fantasy, originally published in 1917.
