There is a time for magic and a time for common sense.
22 Mar 2001
Format:Hardcover
This series has been too overlooked. I just love these. Dorothy goes to a carnival, meets a strange fortune-teller, Madam Zsza, and gets a free ride in a balloon. But when it goes ary she gets to the Deadly Desert and is rescued by Ozma, Billina, the Scarecrow and Omby Amby. Meanwhile, a wayward magic wand reeks havoc on the Emerald Palace. There's the same thing as in "Return to Oz" (1964 cartoon) Magic is everywhere.This story has everything it needs to be perfect.
Not Exactly Ozzy, But Still A Good Book
29 Dec 2000
Format:Hardcover
In this short story about Oz, Dorothy is again spirited on a wild adventure, this time in the basket of a balloon. However, the balloon is quickly running out of fuel, and Dorothy begins to descend towards the treacherous sands of the Deadly Desert. Meanwhile, Ozma, Scarecrow, Omby Amby, Billina, and the newly reconstructed Gump go to rescue her. As they are gone, a curious boy named Robert starts to create chaos in the Emerald City as he starts to create things he can't control with Ozma's wand. Upon return, Dorothy, Ozma, and the others find the Emerald City under attack by fog, storms, and a gigantic bullfrog. In the end, all is set right once more, and Robert learns why only Ozma can wield magic in the land of Oz. A good book, but not on the lines of the Famous Forty, this book still continues with the zany adventures of our Oz friends.
