The book is one of the best-known stories in American literature and has been widely translated. The Library of Congress has declared it "e;America's greatest and best-loved homegrown fairytale."e; Its groundbreaking success and the success of the Broadway musical adapted from the novel led Baum to write thirteen additional Oz books that serve as official sequels to the first story.In January 1901, George M.
