To My Readers
|
It's no use; no use at all. The children won't let me stop telling tales
|
of the Land of Oz. I know lots of other stories, and I hope to tell
|
them, some time or another; but just now my loving tyrants won't allow
|
me. They cry: "Oz--Oz! more about Oz, Mr. Baum!" and what can I do but
|
obey their commands?
|
This is Our Book--mine and the children's. For they have flooded me with
|
thousands of suggestions in regard to it, and I have honestly tried to
|
adopt as many of these suggestions as could be fitted into one story.
|
After the wonderful success of "Ozma of Oz" it is evident that Dorothy
|
has become a firm fixture in these Oz stories. The little ones all love
|
Dorothy, and as one of my small friends aptly states: "It isn't a real
|
Oz story without her." So here she is again, as sweet and gentle and
|
innocent as ever, I hope, and the heroine of another strange adventure.
