Just hearing the name “Oz” conjures up fantastic images, adventures, and heartfelt memories. So many of us can recite the plot of the famous story, but how many of us really know what went into creating it? What influences did L. Frank Baum have in his life as he created what is widely acknowledged as “America’s first fairytale”? Librarian Laura Keyes will separate fact from fiction as she shares the fantastic story of the amazing man who created The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Co-sponsored by Addison Historical Society.
