In this classic children’s novel set in the Land of Oz, Dorothy and the Wizard embark on a journey to find their missing friend Princess Ozma. One morning in the Emerald City, Dorothy Gale awakens to discover a series of baffling disappearances. Glinda the Good’s Great Book of Records has vanished, along with her magical implements. The Wizard of Oz discovers that his black bag of magic is gone as well. Most distressing of all, however, is the disappearance of Princess Ozma herself. Organizing a series of search parties to find the princess, Dorothy and the Wizard—along with Dorothy’s good friend Trot and the young boy Button-Bright—set out on a perilous adventure through unknown regions of Oz. But they soon find themselves in the land of the powerful wizard Ugu, whose castle holds many dangers—and the secret to Ozma’s whereabouts.

The Emerald City is built all of beautiful marbles in which are set a profusion of emeralds, every one exquisitely cut and of very great size. There are other jewels used in the decorations inside the houses and palaces, such as rubies, diamonds, sapphires, amethysts and turquoises. But in the streets and upon the outside of the buildings only emeralds appear, from which circumstance the place is named the Emerald City of Oz.
