Pour la première fois en français, l'intégrale en six tomes du Cycle d'Oz, l'oeuvre culte de L. Frank Baum. Le Magicien d'Oz raconte l'histoire de Dorothy, une petite fille qui vit au Kansas chez son oncle et sa tante. Emportée par un cyclone avec son chien Toto, elle se retrouve dans un étrange pays où, avec l'aide de compagnons un peu bizarres - un épouvantail, un homme en fer-blanc et un lion froussard -, elle va affronter non seulement une sorcière particulièrement cruelle, mais aussi des tigres, des singes volants, des loups affamés, une araignée géante...Le Merveilleux Pays d'Oz est la suite du Magicien d'Oz. Le lecteur y fait la rencontre de Tip, un jeune garçon contraint de servir la sorcière Mombi et qui finit par s'échapper avec Jack, un drôle de bonhomme en bois à tête de citrouille. Ensemble, ils vont s'aventurer dans une contrée merveilleuse et affronter de nombreuses épreuves. Tout le monde connaît Le Magicien d'Oz, d'abord par le roman de L. Frank Baum paru en 1900, puis par le film de Victor Fleming (1939). En revanche, on sait moins que Baum donna une suite aux aventures de Dorothy et de ses compagnons - et quelle suite ! Plus de dix volumes parus entre 1900 et 1919, dont nous commençons la publication inédite et intégrale, illustrée par Stéphane Levallois.
