"The Surprising Adventures of the Magical Monarch of Mo and His People" by L. Frank (Lyman Frank) Baum is a fanciful children’s story set in the sunny Valley of Mo, where magical things constantly happen. Following the fun-loving Magical Monarch, the book tells of light-hearted journeys, showing a place far from the problems of the real world. Readers are quickly drawn into a world of everlasting sunshine, where you might find rivers made of milk and tasty candy fields. The story takes off when the Monarch hilariously loses his head in a fight with a Purple Dragon, which leads to his people playfully replacing it with different funny heads. Full of creative ideas, gentle lessons, and lots of laughter, it reminds both young and old to enjoy the simple, magical parts of life.
