The Cowardly Lion of Oz

Dear Girls and Boys: This is the Cowardly Lion's book, because it is mostly about him and the people who were hunting him. Why, I do not believe there has been so much excitement in Oz since the Scarecrow fell down his family tree. Imagine anyone daring to hunt our dear old jolly friend, just as if he were a common, man-eating creature, and imagine—! But here I go telling the whole story. Read it yourself and then tell me exactly what you think of this Mustafa of Mudge and his blue whiskers. The Cowardly Lion of Oz was written by Ruth Plumly Thompson. It is based on the famous Oz stories by L. Frank Baum.
