The Patchwork Girl of Oz

A curious historian, once appointed by Princess Dorothy herself, builds a backyard tower and learns the art of wireless telegraphy to reach the hidden Land of Oz. When his signal finally finds its way to the sorceress Glinda, she alerts Dorothy, who secures Ozma’s permission for the historian to receive fresh news from the magical realm. The result is a brand‑new tale that promises the same bright wonder that made the earlier Oz adventures beloved by generations of children.

The story opens with Ojo, a bright‑eyed Munchkin boy, sharing humble meals with his solemn Uncle Nunkie in a modest cottage. Their simple worries about missing butter and jam quickly give way to a whimsical quest, as Ojo’s curiosity draws him into encounters with extraordinary companions—including a lively patchwork girl stitched together from spare bits of fabric. Together they set out on a journey filled with clever riddles, quirky inventions, and the warm camaraderie that makes Oz an ever‑inviting place.
