Project Description
Oz, Dog of the Del
Set in the early twentieth century, Oz, Dog of the Del is a children’s story in rhyme. It features Oz, a fearless dachshund who lives at the Hotel del Coronado. He befriends a young girl named Izzy and takes her on an adventure around the island where they meet Charlie Chaplin filming a movie, the Great White Fleet, Charles Lindbergh in his airplane, and Frank Baum—the author of The Wizard of Oz, who promises to write Oz and Izzy into his book.
Oz, Dog of the Del, was illustrated by Pat Palermino.
