Ozma of Oz is the third book in L. Frank Baum's "Oz" series, and it continues the adventures of Dorothy Gale in the magical land of Oz. In this story, Dorothy is sailing to Australia with her Uncle Henry when they are caught in a storm and Dorothy is thrown overboard. She washes up on the shore of the Land of Ev, where she meets a new friend, Billina, a talking hen. Together, they set out to explore this strange new land. Dorothy soon learns that the Land of Ev is ruled by the evil Nome King, who has imprisoned the royal family of Ev and is planning to conquer the Land of Oz. With the help of new friends, such as the mechanical man Tik-Tok and the cowardly lion, Dorothy sets out to rescue the royal family and save Oz from the Nome King's clutches. The journey is full of danger, including encounters with ferocious monsters and treacherous villains. But with her courage and determination, Dorothy perseveres and ultimately triumphs over the Nome King. "Ozma of Oz" is a beloved classic of children's literature, full of whimsy, adventure, and heart. Baum's imaginative descriptions of the Land of Ev and the Land of Oz, as well as the characters who inhabit them, continue to captivate readers of all ages.
O autoru
L. Frank Baum, born on May 15, 1856, in Chittenango, New York, is an iconic figure in American literature, best known for his revolutionary contributions to children's fantasy. Baum's early life was marked by a series of entrepreneurial ventures, from breeding fancy poultry to managing a theater, which imbued him with a rich tapestry of experiences that would later color his imaginative works.Baum's most enduring legacy is the creation of the magical Land of Oz, a fantastical realm that has captivated readers for over a century. His innovative storytelling broke away from the grim moralism of traditional fairy tales, offering instead a world where whimsy and wonder took center stage. This shift not only delighted young readers but also paved the way for future fantasy writers, including J.K. Rowling and Neil Gaiman.A forward-thinking individual, Baum was a vocal advocate for women's suffrage, influenced by his mother-in-law, Matilda Joslyn Gage, a prominent suffragist. This progressive stance is subtly reflected in his strong, independent female characters, who often defy the gender norms of their time.Baum's life was not without controversy. His editorial work included racially insensitive remarks about Native Americans, which have since marred his legacy. Despite this, his contributions to literature remain significant, offering a blend of escapism and subtle social commentary that continues to resonate with modern audiences.Baum's imaginative worlds and pioneering spirit have left an indelible mark on the landscape of American literature, ensuring his place as a seminal figure whose influence endures in contemporary storytelling.
