Autor de más de sesenta publicaciones infantiles, L. Frank Baum debe su popularidad principalmente a El Mago de Oz, obra que desde el momento de su publicación en 1900 ha conocido innumerables ediciones en las mas diversas lenguas y ha sido llevada a la pantalla en varias ocasiones. Tan prolongada vigencia, que ha transformado en clasico un cuento infantil, que conserva toda su frescura y atractivo originales, sugiere que este relato lleno de fantasia y humor que da cuenta de las peripecias de Dorothy y su perro Toto, del Espantapajaros, del Leñador de Hojalata y del Leon Cobarde en su camino hacia la Ciudad Esmeralda, donde esperan conseguir del Gran Oz la realizacion de sus deseos, y alberga en su seno otras lecturas posibles que cada generacion por su cuenta ha ido y seguira descubriendo.

The Scarecrow of Oz is the ninth Oz book. In this story, Trot, a young girl from California, and her peg-legged sailor friend, Capn Bill, find themselves on a perilous voyage when a whirlpool leaves them stranded in an underwater cave. There they are befriended by a most curious creature - the Ork. With four paddle-like wings, legs like a storks, a parrots head, and a tail like a propeller, the Ork proves to be a very welcome and helpful companion.

The Road to Oz takes Dorothy and her friends on an adventure in Oz to a grand party in honour of Ozmas birthday in this spellbinding and classic tale. Dorothy and her faithful Toto are back home in Kansas when they encounter the homeless and hapless Shaggy Man and decide to accompany him on his journey. Soon they encounter a bevy of new friends, including Button-Bright and Polychrome the Rainbows Daughter, and are back on their way to the magical land of Oz. Hoping to arrive in time to attend the Ozmas birthday party, the company is soon pitched headlong into a series of unlikely adventures, tackling talking foxes with magical powers and crossing the Deadly Desert. Arriving at the palace, they make the acquaintance of a host of guests from all over Fairyland. Will Dorothy and Toto remain in Oz with their old friend the Wizard, or will she once again return to her native land?

An unlucky Munchkin boy named Ojo must travel around Oz gathering the ingredients for an antidote to the Liquid of Petrifaction which has turned his beloved uncle Unc Nunkie and the wife of the Liquids creator into marble statues. Ojo is joined by the patchwork girl Scraps, Dorothy, Dr. Pipts Glass Cat, the Woozy, the Shaggy Man, the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman. They eventually visit the Emerald City to ask for help from the Wizard of Oz.

Published in 1910, this book is the story of what happens when Dorothy and her Uncle Henry and Aunt Em move to Oz permanently and they help thwart the return of the Nome King who plans to invade Oz.

A California earthquake sends Dorothy Gale and her new friends--Zeb the farm boy, Jim the cab-horse, and Eureka the mischievous kitten--tumbling through a crack in the ground. Deep beneath the earth, Dorothy is reunited with her old friend the Wizard of Oz and his troupe of nine tiny piglets.Together, Dorothy, the Wizard, and their friends travel through many fantastic lands, where they encounter the Mangaboos, people growing like vegetables in the ground; cross the Valley of Voe, where dama-fruit has turned everyone invisible; and are captured by mysterious flying Gargoyles. At last, the intrepid travelers reach Oz, where they have many unforgettable encounters with such favorites as the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman, the Cowardly Lion and the Hungry Tiger, Princess Ozma and the wooden Sawhorse.

The Twinkle Tales is a 1905 series by L. Frank Baum, published under the pen name Laura Bancroft. The six stories were issued in separate booklets by Baums publisher Reilly & Britton, with illustrations by Maginel Wright Enright. In 1911, the six eight-chapter stories were collected as Twinkle and Chubbins; Their Astonishing Adventures in Nature-Fairyland which is a misnomer, since Chubbins appears in only two stories and few are set in "Nature-Fairyland". The book was followed by Policeman Bluejay, which was retitled Babes in Birdland for its second edition.
