Description
After the success of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Lyman drafted this tale of the exciting ventures of a young girl with the name of Dot and a young boy with the name of Tot in a place fumbled by gliding on a river that streamed to a passageway. The place was known to be Merryland and was divided into seven dales. The story has beautiful illustrations by W. W. Denslow, who created illustrations for the past three Lyman stories. Dot and Tot of Merryland was first produced by the Geo. M. Hill company of Chicago in 1901. Books of Wonder republished Dot and Tot of Merryland with few text modifications and newly illustrated by Donald Abbott. The republication consists of plain illustrations, although Abbott recrafted his after the Denslow artworks. Though Baum and Denslow were wishing for another best seller after the famous The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, it was not that much successful. Lyman Frank Baum often called as L. Frank Baum, was a United States writer mostly known for his stories for children, in particular The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and its series. He made an entirety of 14 novels in the Oz sequels, and an additional of 41 other novels, 83 short fiction, more than 200 verses, and not less than 42 screenplays. He created innumerable efforts to take along his pieces to the theater and the budding medium of motion picture; the 1939 version of the first Oz story would become a milestone of 20th century film. His pieces awaited such century-after mundane as television, amplified verity, laptop computers in The Master Key, wireless telephones in Tik-Tok of Oz, females in hazardous and oppressive jobs in Mary Louise in the Country, and the everywhereness of publicizing on apparels in Aunt Jane’s Nieces at Work.
