The Scarecrow of Oz

The Scarecrow of Oz is the ninth book set in the Land of Oz written by L. Frank Baum. Published on July 16, 1915, it was Baum's personal favorite of the Oz books and tells of Cap'n Bill and Trot journeying to Oz and, with the help of the Scarecrow, overthrowing the cruel King Krewl of Jinxland. Cap'n Bill and Trot (Mayre Griffiths) had previously appeared in two other novels by Baum, The Sea Fairies and Sky Island.










It seems to me, and more noticeable in this novel, that Baum began to attempt to appeal to a more adult audience for his novels, hence all the love story plots sprouting up in the series, which I believe led to the beginning of the end of the popularity for the novel series. Now, popularity never stopped me from reading or watching anything, because as I am sure you know, popularity does not equal quality and I still remain attached to these novels, despite the change in the narrative storytelling.
