The “Little Wizard Stories of Oz” are six short stories written by L. Frank Baum in 1913.
By all accounts, Baum intended to finish the Oz series with “The Emerald City of Oz,” published in 1910. Following that, he attempted to write non-Oz books, publishing “The Sea Fairies” in 1911 and “Sky Island” in 1912.
But, his readers were only interested in hearing more Oz stories. So in 1913, he returned to writing about Oz, putting out The “Little Wizard Stories” that year.
The Little Wizard Stories were geared toward younger children and were originally published separately, “similar in style to today’s Little Golden Books.” The next year, they were published together as one volume.
Each Little Wizard Story revolves around the adventures of two famous Oz characters, and their humorous adventures in and around the land of Oz.
