Wishing Horse of Oz

Someone has unleashed magic wishing emeralds into the little kingdom of Skampavia, and power-hungry King Skamperoo wants them all for himself. In a single greedy wish, he transforms himself into Emperor of Oz, and an enchantment sweeps across the land, erasing Princess Ozma from everyone's memory. Every citizen forgets their beloved ruler except one: Dorothy Gale, who teams up with the most unlikely hero in all of Oz, a flying pig named Pigasus. Together, they must break the spell, restore Ozma, and unmask who truly controls the wishing emeralds before Skamperoo's ambition destroys everything. The Wishing Horse of Oz spins a wild, witty tale of stolen wishes, forgotten identities, and the question of who really deserves to rule. Thompson's Oz gleams with strange creatures, daring alliances (including a suspicious pact with the Gnome King), and the kind of anarchic magic that made these books irresistible to generations of young readers seeking escape into impossible worlds.
