American Fairy TalesAmerican Fairy Tales is the title of a collection of twelve fantasy stories by L. Frank Baum, published in 1901 by the George M. Hill Company, the firm that issued The Wonderful Wizard of Oz the previous year. This collection of fantasy stories was originally serialized in regional newspapers, prior to being published as a complete volume. A set of short tales for everyone. In his captivating writing styles Frank Baum delivers another book with fairies, knooks, and ryls

The twelve stories you will get in the book:

THE BOX OF ROBBERS

THE GLASS DOG

THE QUEEN OF QUOK

THE GIRL WHO OWNED A BEAR

THE ENCHANTED TYPES

THE LAUGHING HIPPOPOTAMUS

THE MAGIC BON BONS

THE CAPTURE OF FATHER TIME

THE WONDERFUL PUMP

THE DUMMY THAT LIVED

THE KING OF THE POLAR BEARS

THE MANDARIN AND THE BUTTERFLY

Two of the stories, "The Enchanted Types" and "The Dummy That Lived," employ knooks and ryls, the fairies that Baum would use in The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus the next year, 1902. "The Dummy That Lived" depends upon the idea of a department-store mannequin brought to life, an early expression of an idea that would be re-used by many later writers in television and films.

Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 - May 6, 1919), was an American author who was a specialist in children's books. He was particularly famous for his The Wonderful Wizard of Oz series, a sensational hit among children and continues to do so.

He was better known by his pen name L. Frank Baum.

His stories have formed the basis for such popular films as The Wizard of Oz (1939), produced by the famous Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios Inc. and Oz the Great and Powerful (2013).

Named "Lyman" after his uncle, Baum didn't like his first name much obviously and chose to be called by his middle name "Frank" instead.

Baum wrote about his purpose in introduction of his book: "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was written solely to pleasure children today. It aspires to being a modernized fairy tale, in which the wonderment and joy are retained and the heart-aches and nightmares are left out."
