The Magic of Oz
The Magic of Oz is the thirteenth Land of Oz book written by L. Frank Baum.
Published on June 7, 1919, one month after the author's death," The Magic of Oz" relates the unsuccessful attempt of the Munchkin boy Kiki Aru and former Nome King Ruggedo to conquer Oz.
The novel was dedicated to" the Children of our Soldiers, the Americans and their Allies, with unmeasured Pride and Affection."
Queen Zixi of Ix
Queen Zixi of Ix, or The Story of the Magic Cloak, is a children's book written by L. Frank Baum and illustrated by Frederick Richardson.
It was originally serialized in the early 20th- century American children's magazine" St. Nicholas" from November 1904 to October 1905, and was published in book form later in 1905 by The Century Company.
The events of the book alternate between Noland and Ix, two neighboring regions to the Land of Oz, and Baum himself commented this was the best book he had written.
In a letter to his eldest son, Frank Joslyn Baum, he said it was" nearer to the" old- fashioned" fairy tale than anything I have yet accomplished," and in many respects, it adheres more closely to the fairy tale structure than the Oz books.
The book was made into the 1914 film" The Magic Cloak of Oz".
Although no part of the book's story takes place in the Land of Oz, by the time the movie was made, it had become clear that the Oz franchise was Baum's most popular creation.
The copyright to" Queen Zixi of Ix" was acquired by Dover Publications in 1971, and the book was re-released with its original illustrations and a new introduction by Martin Gardner.
Like all books published in the U.S. before 1923, it is now in the public domain.

The film is an adaptation of Baum's 1905 novel, "Queen Zixi of Ix".
Cloak of invisibility
A cloak of invisibility is a fictional theme.
In folklore, mythology and fairy tales, a cloak of invisibility appears either as a magical item used by duplicitous characters or an item worn by a hero to fulfill a quest.
It is a common theme in Welsh and Germanic folklore, and may originate with the cap of invisibility seen in ancient Greek myths.
The motif falls under" D 1361.12 magic cloak of invisibility" in the Stith Thompson motif index scheme.

Frank Joslyn Baum
Frank Joslyn Baum( December 3, 1883 – December 2, 1958) was an American lawyer, soldier, writer, and film producer, and the first president of The International Wizard of Oz Club.
He is best known as the author of" To Please a Child"( a biography of his father, L. Frank Baum)( 1962) and" The Laughing Dragon of Oz"( 1936).
He was involved in the production of" Wizard of Oz"( 1925), and" The Wizard of Oz"( 1933), for which he also received writing credit, after which he sold" The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" film rights to Samuel Goldwyn.
His attempt to trademark the Oz name distanced him from the rest of his family.
In addition," To Please a Child" has been suspect since before it was published, as most of his family refused to confirm any details about his father's life, leading Baum to fabricate some details.
