Comments:
The storyline takes place about 18 years after The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and is written in a epistolary way with dates given between September 9 through October 6. The concept of the series is to read one chapter each day as all the books could be read in a full year like a religious devotional. With this style, they were even published on the actual day that each first chapter starts from. It revolves around Jakon Gale who as the adopted son of Dorothy (similar to Hank in A Barnstormer in Oz) gets captured by flying monkeys and put into a prison for something he did as the "Mayor of Oz". He and his siblings named Frank (perhaps after L. Frank Baum), Lucy, Margaret, Chester, Gertrude, and Ethel are all orphans as Dorothy passed away. Also, the [[Wizard of Oz ([Kingdom of Fairytales)|Wizard]] hasn't been seen since he left in the balloon though supposedly he ordered his capture.
