About the author

Librarian Note: There is more than one author in the Goodreads database with this name.

Alexander Volkov (Александр Волков) wrote several historical novels, but is mostly remembered for a series of children's books based on L. Frank Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.
The first of these books, The Wizard of the Emerald City, is a loose translation of the first Oz book, with chapters added, altered, or omitted, some names changed (for example, Dorothy becomes "Ellie" and Oz is renamed "Magic Land"), and several characters given personal names instead of generic ones.

First published in 1939 in the Soviet Union, the book became quite popular; and in the 1960s Volkov also wrote his own sequels to the story. From 1963 to 1970, four more books in the series were published, with the sixth and final story published posthumously in 1982.
