About the book

Grade 3-6-Dorothy Gale returns in this third book in L. Frank Baum's series about the Land of Oz. In this adventure, Dorothy is tossed overboard from a ship and, when she reaches land, discovers that she is in the fairy realm of Ev. Accompanied by a talking chicken named Billina, Dorothy becomes embroiled in a quest to rescue Queen Ev and her ten children from the Nome King's evil clutches. Even with the help of her old friends-the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, the Cowardly Lion, and Ozma of Oz-it is up to Dorothy to save the day. John McDonough's smooth narration is a perfect fit for this timeless classic. The deep timbre of his voice soothes listeners, evoking the magic found in these far away lands. His respect for the characters and the story is evident in the reading, making even the most outrageous events seem plausible. A solid purchase for any collection.-Veronica Schwartz, Des Plaines Public Library, IL

If you've seen the 1985 movie Return to Oz you will no doubt recognise elements of this book. While the Gump and Pumpkin Head were pulled from The Marvelous Land of Oz (the previous Oz book.) Pretty much the rest of the movie was taken from this book. Ozma of Oz configure the perfectly peculiar style from the first two. As I suspected would be the case, also starts to tie loose ends together from the previous works so it definitely starts feeling like the series is one cohesive whole. Because so much of it was familiar from the movie it's hard for me to evaluate the book on its own merits. This is diffent from other adaptations because it wasn't a diet adaptation, so it's impossible to say "Movie did X better while book did Y better." and unlike WWoO the story isn't an institution. Ultimately it was an enjoyable entry.
