Robin Brown mounts a merry-go-round in Oregon, grabs the brass ring, and suddenly he and his scarlet carousel horse fly off to Oz! With the magically animated merry-go-round horse as a companion, Robin joins Dorothy, the Cowardly Lion, Prince Gules, and a unicorn on a quest to save the Kingdom of Halidom.Merry Go Round in Oz was the 40th and last of the original Oz books issued by L. Frank Baum's own publishers. Written by Eloise Jarvis McGraw (winner of three Newbery Honor Medals) and her daughter, and illustrated by beloved Oz artist Dick Martin, this is a complete facsimile of the original 1963 edition.
