The Magical Monarch of Mo - L. Frank Baum - Book 15

The Magical Monarch of Mo - L. Frank Baum - Book 15 Title: The Magical Monarch of Mo Overview: The Surprising Adventures of the Magical Monarch of Mo and His People (copyright registered June 17, 1896) is the first full-length children's fantasy novel by L. Frank Baum. Originally published in 1899 as A New Wonderland, Being the First Account Ever Printed of the Beautiful Valley, and the Wonderful Adventures of Its Inhabitants, the book was reissued in 1903 with a new title in order to capitalize upon the alliterative title of Baum's successful The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. The book is only slightly altered—Mo is called Phunniland or Phunnyland, but aside from the last paragraph of the first chapter, they are essentially the same book. It is illustrated by Frank Ver Beck. Mo is much more of a nonsense book than Oz, bringing to mind Lewis Carroll's 1865 book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, which is probably what the original title referred to. Each chapter is a different story, unlike Baum's other books, which are full-length stories. They do, however, have a general throughline, and can be seen as an episodic novel.
