The Lost King of Oz
''The Lost King of Oz'' (1925) is the nineteenth in the series of Oz books created by L. Frank Baum and his successors, and the fifth written by Ruth Plumly Thompson. It was Illustrated by John R. Neill.
==Thompson's approach==
As she sometimes does in her books,〔David L. Greene and Dick Martin, ''The Oz Scrapbook'', New York, Random House, 1977; p. 61.〕 Thompson exploits a detail in Baum's work to generate her story. Baum mentions Pastoria, Ozma's father and former ruler of Oz,〔Jack Snow, ''Who's Who in Oz'', Chicago, Reilly & Lee, 1954; New York, Peter Bedrick Books, 1988; p. 156.〕 only briefly in the twentieth chapter of ''The Marvelous Land of Oz'' (1904); Thompson spins Baum's hint into a full tale of Pastoria's exile and rescue.
Thompson dedicated ''The Lost King of Oz'' to her invalid mother. She suggested to her publishers that the dedication be made in the form of a crossword puzzle — but Reilly & Lee rejected the idea.〔Greene and Martin, p. 72.〕
