Description

In the northern reaches of Oz lives a restless boy named Tip, raised by the mysterious Mombi, a woman whose magic is whispered about but never fully trusted. While toiling in the fields and dreaming of adventure, Tip fashions a mischievous pumpkin head that unexpectedly comes to life, setting off a chain of curious events that pull him away from his dreary chores.

Guided by the clever Scarecrow and the steadfast Tin Woodman—characters beloved from the first Oz tale—Tip embarks on a whimsical journey across the Emerald City’s borders. Along the way he encounters a rebel army, a witty Woggle‑Bug, and the enigmatic Princess Ozma, all while learning that courage and friendship can be found in the most unlikely companions. The story blends humor, gentle magic, and a touch of rebellion, inviting listeners to follow Tip’s bright‑hearted quest through a land where imagination truly reigns.
