The Patchwork Girl of Oz is a classic children's novel written by L. Frank Baum, the author of the beloved Wizard of Oz series. The story follows the adventures of a young boy named Ojo and his friends, as they journey to find a cure for his uncle's petrification. Along the way, they meet a patchwork girl named Scraps, who was brought to life by a magician's mistake. Together, they encounter a variety of strange and magical creatures, including the Woozy, a creature with a square head and a long tail, and the Glass Cat, a feline made entirely of glass. Along the way, they face many challenges and obstacles, including the wicked Nome King, who seeks to steal the magic powder that can save Ojo's uncle. With its vivid characters, imaginative setting, and exciting plot, The Patchwork Girl of Oz is a timeless classic that has delighted generations of readers.The Magician uttered such a wild cry that Ojo jumped away and the Patchwork Girl sprang after him and clasped her stuffed arms around him in terror. The Glass Cat snarled and hid under the table, and so it was that when the powerful Liquid of Petrifaction was spilled it fell only upon the wife of the Magician and the uncle of Ojo. With these two the charm worked promptly. They stood motionless and stiff as marble statues.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
