Summary
"L. Frank Baum's novel The Wizard of Oz has spawned 39 official sequels, more than 100 unofficial sequels, nearly 40 films, several TV series, music videos, commercials, computer games, radio shows and more. An African-American slant, a Turkish low-budget fantasy, Japanese anime, and American pornography are just a few forms in which Oz has appeared." "This book comprehensively catalogs and describes the many manifestations of the story: the forty Oz books in the original series and a number of related books by the Royal Historians of Oz; stage adaptations; films and video productions (including educational films); television adaptations; comic books and comic strips; radio shows and other audio performances; video and computer games; commercials; websites; and film and television allusions to the story. Entries provide extensive information about the adaptations."--BOOK JACKET.
