Description
Grampa in Oz
In which King Fumbo of Ragbad loses his head in a storm and Prince Tatters, accompanied by the wise and wonderful old soldier Grampa, sets off to find the king’s head, a fortune, and a princess.
With Bill, a live weathercock, they visit a Wizard’s garden and discover Urtha, a lovely girl made all of flowers—and proceed to fall, swim, explode, sail, and fly above and below Oz and Ev. Grampa and comapny eventually meet Dorothy herself, traveling with a Forgetful Poet in search of the missing princess of Perhaps City who has been condemned to marry a monster!
We have recently acquired a supply of the first nine Ruth Plumly Thompson Oz books as issued by Del Rey in the mid-1980s. These “like new” copies are forty years old and look like they were printed yesterday! Each are first printings of the Del Rey paperbacks featuring the stunning new cover paintings by Michael Herring. Del Rey’s later printings were produced via “Print on Demand” with badly warped and stretched cover art. Don’t miss this chance to collect these forty-year-old original paperback editions – while supplies last!
“Eloise Jarvis McGraw’s favorite Oz book!”
