Written by L. Frank Baum

Illustrated by Eric Shanower

This brand new publication from Hungry Tiger Press includes all 27 episodes of Baum's 1904 "Queer Visitors from the Marvelous Land of Oz" short stories plus the complete, unedited text of Baum's 1905 The Wogglebug Book. All illustrated by Eric Shanower!
