This entry in L. Frank Baum’s enduring Oz series is a rollicking adventure in a world of limitless creative possibilities.
A rainstorm has just washed up young Oklahoma native Betsy Bobbin and her mule Hank on the shores of Oz, where they soon run into a wanderer called the Shaggy Man. Agreeing to join him on a search for his brother, they assemble a wonderful misfit crew that includes a cloud fairy and a windup mechanical man named Tik-Tok.
There are new marvels at every turn of their journey, as they explore a man-made metal forest and whiz through glass tubes that span the length of the world. Whimsical and full of invention, Tik-Tok of Oz blends mechanical wonder with the warmth and humor that define Baum’s most memorable tales."
