Author L. Frank Baum Book Index

Posted on Updated on

Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 – May 6, 1919) was an American author best known for his children’s fantasy books, particularly The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, part of a series. In addition to the 14 Oz books, Baum penned 41 other novels (not including four lost, unpublished novels), 83 short stories, over 200 poems, and at least 42 scripts. (Source: Wikipedia)

This is an index of the Baum books that are available for download on Project Gutenberg. I personally find PG a little difficult to look through when I’m focused on a specific author or topic, so indexes like these are helpful– I’m hoping you’ll find it helpful, too!

L. Frank Baum wrote under several names, including his own, and I’ve included those pennames here as well. Most of these are kids books, but a few were written for an adult reader audience! I’ve put those in a separate section so you can find them if you’re interested.

I’ve focused on books and not his short stories/essays/scripts/etc. I’ve also ONLY listed books that were written by Baum himself; some of his series were continued by other authors, and those’ll get their own post later.

They’re grouped roughly by series, and then in order of publication date. All the links go to the Project Gutenberg page where you can download them in EPUB, mobi, txt or html format.

Note: Some links here are affiliate links, which means if you click on it and buy something, I get a small percentage. This money goes towards running the blog. Thank you for your support!
