L. Frank Baum

The Woggle-bug Book L. Frank Baum

Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 ? May 6, 1919) is one of America?s most read authors, and he is widely considered one of the premier authors of children?s books. Baum wrote dozens of novels and short stories, as well as hundreds of poems, and he even foresaw technological innovations such as computers, televisions and mobile phones, all of which made their way into his writing. Baum, however, is still best known and best regarded for The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and several other titles that took place in the fantasy world of Oz. Every American is familiar with Dorothy and Toto, and Oz has been adapted for movies, screenplays, and more ever since. Baum wrote plenty of novels and tales that weren't about Oz, but in many instances characters from other books made their way to Oz. So it was with The Woggle-Bug Book. While this book is not part of the ?Oz? series, readers will find more information about the Woggle-bug in The Marvelous Land of Oz and other stories.
