Summary

"The Shaggy Man of Oz" by Jack Snow is a whimsical children's fantasy novel that continues the adventures in L. Frank Baum's Oz. Bored twins, Tom and Twink, find their humdrum day turned upside down when they step through their television and land on the magical Isle of Conjo ruled by Twiffle, a wooden clown. Simultaneously, the Shaggy Man is in Oz, troubled by a broken Love Magnet, a significant magical tool. As the twins explore Conjo, they are pulled into a scheme by the wizard Conjo, setting the scene for a journey filled with magic, camaraderie, and discovery of new worlds.

About the Author

John Frederick Snow, born Piqua, Ohio was an American radio writer, writer of ghost stories, and scholar, primarily of the works of L. Frank Baum. When Baum died in 1919, the twelve-year-old Snow offered to be the next Royal Historian of Oz, but was turned down by a staffer at Baum's publisher, Reilly & Lee. Snow eventually wrote two Oz books: The Magical Mimics in Oz (1946) and The Shaggy Man of Oz (1949), as well as Who's Who in Oz (1954), a guide to the Oz characters, all of which Reilly & Lee published.
