Description: Most people know about OZ from the 1939 MGM classic movie, starring Judy Garland. But the true story of OZ started with the first book, THE WIZARD OF OZ, by L. Frank Baum, published in 1900. He wrote thirteen more books in the series until his death in 1919. The series was then continued by a number of other people. The first book has had hundreds of different editions, whether unabridged or adapted; either with the original art of W.W. Denslow or with other illustrators giving it a fresh visual interpretation. THE WIZARD IN OZ written by L. FRANK BAUM abridged / adapted by Allen Chafee cover art and interior art by Anton Loeb A condensed version of the book with illustrations on every page - some color, some black & white.

Books can easily be combined and pack well together. Media mail is a very affordable rate offered by the USPS. Cost is based solely on weight and does not vary with distance. If buying multiple books, please put them in your cart and then "request total from seller". I will then send you an invoice with an adjusted shipping cost. However, I have been told that if you are ordering from a phone, it may not be possible to request such a total. If that is your situation, please go ahead and pay the shipping as billed. Then, when I process your order, I will calculate the difference between shipping paid versus actual cost, and refund you any difference. Thanks for looking!
