A grave and terrifying crisis grips Oz in L. Frank Baum's "The Lost Princess of Oz": the beloved and benevolent ruler of the Emerald City, Princess Ozma, has mysteriously disappeared from her royal chambers! Panic spreads throughout the magical land as her powerful magic tools – including the invaluable Magic Picture and the magic wand – are also missing. This renders Oz vulnerable and its magic dangerously unstable. A desperate search begins immediately.
Dorothy Gale, the resourceful Wizard of Oz, and all their loyal friends – including the clever Scarecrow, the kind Tin Woodman, and the brave Cowardly Lion – launch a frantic, coordinated quest across every single magical corner of the land. Their widespread search leads them through strange new places, from the peculiar village of the Flatheads whose brains are removed, to the mysterious parts of the Gillikin Country, and into the treacherous depths of the underground realms.
They are confronted with bizarre creatures, quirky characters, and presented with perplexing puzzles and cunning traps set by unknown forces who may or may not be responsible for Ozma's vanishing act. This thrilling mystery not only tests the unbreakable bonds of friendship among Oz's heroes but also challenges their ingenuity, courage, and perseverance to their absolute limits, as they race against time to solve the enigma and restore order and joy to their cherished realm.
