One of the better Oz books. But it was still yet another travelogue, though it read less like one. As has been true for the last few books, the newer characters are the best characters in this one. Dorothy is lame. However Scraps if pretty good, pretty funny. There was some real conflict in this one, though it ended rather abruptly. 3.5 of 5.

Whatever will the Ozites do when their lovely girl ruler is kidnapped? Wander around until they manage to find out who took her, basically, in yet another excuse for Baum to explore new Oz geography. One wonders just how big this country is. I wasn't wild about the frog and the cookie cook subplot, but the tiny pink bear was great.
