Then things change drastically when Oscar Diggs returns to Oz and becomes a real wizard and ends up stealing away the Wogglebug's position as Ozma's right-hand man. Mr. Wogglebug is lonely and dejected until the Frogman comes in. He discovers he has more in common with the Frogman in personality and life status than any other individual in Oz and thus begins the start of their unique friendship. Then many years later, the Frogman discovers he is in need of finding a cure for the curse put on him from long ago by the Truth Pond when he begins deciphering unwelcome truths about the Wizard, Dorothy, and the Scarecrow and Tin Woodman. Mr. Wogglebug sees how he can use these revelations to his advantage but is aware the Frogman must be set free from the shackles the Truth Pond's affects are having on him. In searching for a remedy the clues to it point to a fourteen-year-old girl in Ohio named Terry who has her own troubles. When she is transported to Oz, she reveals to them the legend of the Fountain of the Pure Waters of Healing, which can cure any ailments of any living creature. The three of them set out together on a quest to reach this in hopes of it curing the Frogman's curse. Along their way they journey through the uncharted Island of the Silver Monkeys, the Mountain of Impossible Dreams. They also enter the valley of darkness where they must face their fears before they can reach the valley of light again and encounter the Troll Wizards of Genoma who help their quest be a success. The first in a trilogy with themes of how dark and light go together with learning of truth and love.

Download or read book The Royal Book of Oz Illustrated written by Ruth Plumly Thompson and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-05 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Royal Book of Oz (1921) is the fifteenth in the series of Oz books, and the first, by Ruth Plumly Thompson, to be written after L. Frank Baum's death. Although Baum was credited as the author, it was written entirely by Thompson. Beginning in the 1980s, some editions have correctly credited Thompson,[1] although the cover of the 2001 edition by Dover Publications credits only Baum. The original introduction claimed that the book was based on notes by Baum, but this has been disproved. Baum's surviving notes, known as "An Oz Book" [2] are known from four typewritten pages found at his publisher's, but their authenticity as Baum's work has been disputed. Even if genuine, they bear no resemblance to Thompson's book.
Download or read book The Road to Wicked written by Kent Drummond and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-24 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Road to Wicked examines the long life of the Oz myth. It is both a study in cultural sustainability— the capacity of artists, narratives, art forms, and genres to remain viable over time—and an examination of the marketing machinery and consumption patterns that make such sustainability possible. Drawing on the fields of macromarketing, consumer behavior, literary and cultural studies, and theories of adaption and remediation, the authors examine key adaptations and extensions of Baum’s 1900 novel. These include the original Oz craze, the MGM film and its television afterlife, Wicked and its extensions, and Oz the Great and Powerful—Disney’s recent (and highly lucrative) venture that builds on the considerable success of Wicked. At the end of the book, the authors offer a foundational framework for a new theory of cultural sustainability and propose a set of explanatory conditions under which any artistic experience might achieve it.

Download or read book The Surprising Adventures of the Magical Monarch of Mo and His People written by L. Frank Baum and published by anboco. This book was released on 2016-08-17 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THIS book has been written for children. I have no shame in acknowledging that I, who wrote it, am also a child; for since I can remember my eyes have always grown big at tales of the marvelous, and my heart is still accustomed to go pit-a-pat when I read of impossible adventures. It is the nature of children to scorn realities, which crowd into their lives all too quickly with advancing years. Childhood is the time for fables, for dreams, for joy. These stories are not true; they could no be true and be so marvelous. No one is expected to believe them; they were meant to excite laughter and to gladden the heart. Perhaps some of those big, grown-up people will poke fun of us—at you for reading these nonsense tales of the Magical Monarch, and at me for writing them. Never mind. Many of the big folk are still children—even as you and I. We cannot measure a child by a standard of size or age. The big folk who are children will be our comrades; the others we need not consider at all, for they are self-exiled from our domain.
Download or read book Picture Book Professors written by Melissa M. Terras and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-04 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How is academia portrayed in children's literature? This Element ambitiously surveys fictional professors in texts marketed towards children. Professors are overwhelmingly white and male, tending to be elderly scientists who fall into three stereotypes: the vehicle to explain scientific facts, the baffled genius, and the evil madman. By the late twentieth century, the stereotype of the male, mad, muddlehead, called Professor SomethingDumb, is formed in humorous yet pejorative fashion. This Element provides a publishing history of the role of academics in children's literature, questioning the book culture which promotes the enforcement of stereotypes regarding intellectual expertise in children's media. The Element is also available, with additional material, as Open Access.
