World of Oz
Author: Ruth Plumly Thompson
Illustrator: John R. Neill
In which legendary Umbrella Island flies magically through the air… until it careens smack into the forehead of an extremely unpleasant giant! Meanwhile, Speedy – the New York lad – is making a soaring trip skyward himself, propelled by an erupting geyser and encased in Terrybubble, the jolly living skeleton of a huge dinosaur.
It’s soon up to Speedy to save the Princess of Umbrella Island from both the demands of Loxo the Giant and the warring countries of Roaraway and Norroway.
