The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was written by L. Frank Baum in 1899 and published by the George M. Hill Company in 1900. It was penned as an American-styled fairy-tale. Being a children’s novel, it was profusely illustrated by the imaginative W.W. Denslow. Baum tells a captivating tale of a young Kansas farm girl and her dog Toto who are accidentally carried away by a cyclone and transported to the Land of Oz. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is arguably one of the most popular stories in American literature having sold millions of copies, and reprinted many times by various publishers, as well as being translated into numerous languages. The story saw almost immediate success when in 1902 it was adapted as a Broadway musical. This triumph was followed in 1939 when it became the cinema classic starring Julie Garland- The Wizard of Oz. This reprint is a true reproduction of the author’s original text and features many of the drawings that Denslow produced for the 1900 edition.
