The Flying Girl Books: The Flying Girl and The Flying Girl and Her Chum

The Flying Girl #2

by Edith Van Dyne, L. Frank Baum, Taylor Anderson (Editor)

The Flying Girl is a novel written by L. Frank Baum, author of the Oz books. It was first published in 1911. In the book, Baum pursued an innovative blending of genres to create a feminist adventure melodrama. The book was followed by a sequel, The Flying Girl and Her Chum, published the next year, 1912. Both books were illustrated by Joseph Pierre Nuyttens, the artist who also illustrated Baum's Annabel and Phoebe Daring in 1912.
As with Baum's other books for girls, these two novels were published under the pseudonym "Edith Van Dyne."

Reviews

[Rachael · Rating 4 out of 5]

A fantastic adventure, a planewreck in the pacific Ocean, two young women, Orissa and Sybil, must survive until they can get help, but when help arrives the adventure is just beginning.

Perhaps not quite as good as the first one, but thoroughly enjoyable.
