Dorothy and the Seven-Leaf Clover
This picture book is an adaptation of Chapter 2 of Roger Baum's Dorothy of Oz with slight alterations of text and new artwork.
The SillyOzbul of Oz and Toto
The SillyOzbuls of Oz and the Magic Merry-Go-Round
Internal dates of the first two books seem to indicate 1927, but factors in the third book strongly suggest a more modern setting is appropriate, perhaps 1991 (the year before the copyright date on the third volume).
The Wizard of Oz and the Magic Merry Go Round
This picture book is an adaptation of The Silly Ozbuls of Oz and the Magic Merry Go Round (see above) with new artwork, slightly different prose and no SillyOzbuls. Dating appears to be modern, possibly 1991.
Toto of Oz and the Surprise Party
Written by a very young Chris Dulabone while in grade school, there have been several sequels written which incorporate these characters, including The Fantastic Funhouse of Oz and Vampires in Oz.
Chris Dulabone's first published story and among the earliest to come out of his Buckethead Enterprises of Oz imprint. Rereleased in early 2007 as a print-on-demand title, available from Tails of the Cowardly Lion and Friends.
Acinad Goes to the Emerald City of Oz
Written and illustrated by a class of fourth and fifth graders, students of Chris Dulabone. The Magic Diamond of Oz is a direct sequel and Chris has incorporated many of the events in these books into several of his Buckethead/Tails of the Cowardly Lion titles.
Written and illustrated by a group of fourth and fifth grade students of Chris Dulabone. Sequel to Acinad Goes to the Emerald City.
Brewster Bunny and the Case of the Outrageous Enchantments of Oz
This one and half page pamphlet is designed as a puzzle for kids to help Brewster Bunny solve a mystery.
Our Trip to Oz: Book I
The Enchanted Emeralds from Oz: Book II
Many Lands in Oz: Book III
The Liberty Bell of Oz: Book IV
W.W. Denslow in Oz: Book V
John R. Neill Visits Oz: Book VI
A Valuable Gift from Oz: Book VII
The Wiz Kids of Oz were composed of students in Fourth and Fifth grade classes from several years in a row that were taught by Serafin Padilla, and aided by Chris Dulabone, who helped each succeeding class to compose and publish their own book.
Sequel to Dulabone's juvenile effort, Egor's Funhouse Goes to Oz.
In these two stories, the author's grandchildren have adventures which eventually land them in Oz. In Kidnapped, the evil circus impresario, Whiplash, has been kidnapping pets as well as Ozian animals for his circus. With the help of a computerized, talking backhoe, the kids go to the rescue. In Barney Backhoe, Whiplash is back for revenge. In Oz, meanwhile, Professor Wogglebug has been left in charge and decides to enforce Ozma's law against magic users, with disastrous results. Although cute, Waara's writing style here seems more targeted to a younger audience than her prior two manuscripts (Umbrella Island in Oz, Magic Cryptogram of Oz) and the existence of a living backhoe in America somewhat stretches credulity.
