ORDER THE BOOK PLAYBOARD OZ GAME OZ TRIVIA ... CARD GAME THE WIZARD OF OZ 100th ANNIVERSARY EDITION (2000) L. Frank Baum (1856-1919) Illustrated by Michael Hague In 1899, after the success of "Mother Goose in Prose" and "Father Goose: His Book," L. Frank Baum wrote "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" for which he received countless rejections from publishers. The book was considered a radical departure from the conventional children's literature of the day. Geo. M. Hill Co., a small Chicago publisher, agreed to publish the book with the condition that L. Frank Baum and W.W. Denslow, the Illustrator, incur all expenses. On August 1, 1900, "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" was published and the world was introduced to a new kind of American Fairytale. Children and adults immediately embraced this wonderful story of unlikely friendships, co-operation, bravery and trust and all the inhabitants of Oz: Dorothy, the Tin Woodman, the Lion, the Scarecrow, and the little dog, Toto. By November 1900 the book had already been reprinted twice. Several years later the title of the book was changed to "The Wizard of Oz," which has become a classic American treasure sparking the imagination of millions.

Frank Baum "Lyman Frank Baum was born on 15 May, 1856 in Chittenango, New York. He spent his childhood living on a luxurious country estate called 'Rose Lawn', his father having made a fortune in the oil fields of Pennsylvania. "He married Maud Gage in 1882, the daughter of a leading suffragette, and the family moved westwards to South Dakota. He worked in the theatre and in newspapers and magazines, he manufactured a patent axle grease called Baum's Castorine, managed a general store called Baum's Bazaar, and was even a poultry farmer. "His first two books retold traditional stories, although the last story in Mother Goose in Prose (1897) introduced the character of a young girl named Dorothy. This led him towards the creation of the land of mystery and delight called Oz, and thus, in 1900, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was born. It was an overnight success, and within two years a stage musical of the book had been produced, with Baum himself writing the lyrics and so fulfilling an earlier ambition to be a playwright. However he was forever identified with Oz by the public and as a result he wrote a further thirteen volumes about this mystical land, including

Frank Baum (1856-1919) noted : " I have learned to regard fame as a will-o-the-wisp, which when caught, is not worth the possession; but to please a child is a sweet and lovely thing that warms one's heart and brings its own reward." With The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Baum won the fame that had eluded him in his early careers. By the time he died in 1919, Baum had written thirteen other books set in Oz. T he books were so well loved that Baum's publishers continued the series with other authors to extend the Oz canon to forty books. Although the story seems quintessentially American, the Oz books have become popular world-wide, and the Wizard has been translated into most major languages.

L. Frank Baum's first attempts at finding a publisher for The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900) were fruitless: The market for British fairy tales was considerably stronger at the time, and the fantasy land he had created with its roots in the American Midwest was a hard sell. This rejection occurred even after Baum and his illustrator, W.W. Denslow, had produced the best-selling children's book of 1899, a collection of humorous verse entitled Father Goose, His Book. Eventually Baum did find a publisher, and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was an immediate success, spawning a stage play in 1902, 13 sequels between 1900 and his death in 1919, a series of Sunday comic pages, a young readers' series of Oz books and, of course, the classic film of 1939. Success of this magnitude was without precedent in Baum's life: During his adult life, he had relocated from New York to South Dakota to Chicago, working in and starting a number of businesses, each of which fizzled. But with The Wonderful Wizard of Oz he hit upon a winning formula: A child hero leaves home through some accident and finds herself in a fantasy land, where she is guided by a wise parent-surrogate. This formula is not wholly dissimilar from that of the adventure story for boys that was so popular at the turn of the century, so it is perhaps not surprising that in addition to the Oz industry Baum fathered, he also wrote more than 30 adventure stories between 1906 and 1919. Under the pseudonym Edith Van Dyne, Baum wrote the
