In Chicago on May 17, 1900, it has since been reprinted numerous times, most often under the name The Wizard of Oz , which is the name of both the popular 1902 Broadway musical. And the well-known 1939 film adaptation. The story chronicles the adventures of a young girl named Dorothy Gale. In the Land of Oz.

After being swept away from her Kansas. Farm home in a cyclone. The novel is one of the best-known stories in American popular culture and has been widely translated.

Its initial success, and the success of the 1902 Broadway musical which Baum adapted from his original story, led to Baum's writing thirteen additional Oz books. Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 May 6, 1919), better known by his pen name L.

Frank Baum , was an American author chiefly known for his children's books. Particularly The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. He wrote thirteen novel sequels, nine other fantasy. Novels, and a host of other works 55 novels in total, plus four lost. Novels, 83 short stories, over 200 poems, an unknown number of scripts, and many miscellaneous writings, and made numerous attempts to bring his works to the stage and screen.

His works anticipated such century-later commonplaces as television. Laptop computers (The Mater Key), wireless telephones. (Tik-Tok of Oz), women in high risk, action-heavy occupations (Mary Louise in the Country), and the ubiquity of advertising on clothing (Aunt Jane's Nieces at Work). Denslow (May 25, 1856 May 27, 1915) was an American illustrator and caricaturist remembered for his work in collaboration with author L. Especially his illustrations of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.

Denslow was an editorial cartoonist with a strong interest in politics, which has fueled political interpretations of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
