Ozoplaning With The Wizard of Oz

Ozoplaning with the Wizard of Oz (1939) is the thirty-third in the series of Oz books created by L. Frank Baum and his successors, and the nineteenth and last written by Ruth Plumly Thompson. It was illustrated by John R. Neill.

The phrase "The Wizard of Oz" was included in the title to coincide with the MGM film The Wizard of Oz, which was released the same year the book was published. As such, the focus of the story is on characters who appeared in the first book. Thompson focuses the book most strongly on Jellia Jamb, though that character was unnamed in the first book and was absent from the film.

Famous quotes containing the words wizard of oz and/or wizard:

    “I’ve tried to open the door. My knock isn’t that big a sound. But it is like the knock in “The Wizard of Oz.” It set up this echo through the halls until it was heard by everyone.”
    —Shannon Faulkner (b. c. 1975)

    “The fabulous Wizard of Oz
    Retired from his racket because,
    What with up-to-date science,
    To most of his clients
    He wasn’t the Wizard he was.”
