About Me
Page Willams has been married to his wife Cindy for over forty-seven years. They have two sons, Joshua and Daniel, and two granddaughters, Nora Jane and Helen Ann

Several years ago, my family moved to Kansas. On a whim, Cindy encouraged me to read L. Frank Baum’s first Oz book, “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz” because the story begins in Kansas.
Near the end of the book, Baum describes the iconic scene where the Wizard flies off in his balloon leaving Dorothy and Toto behind. Then the narrator says, “And that was the last any of them ever saw of Oz, the Wonderful Wizard, though he may have reached Omaha safely, and be there now, for all we know.
That intrigued me. Whatever happened to the Wizard? I wrote “The Lost Wizard of Oz” to answer that question. My wife was so pleased with my choice of hobbies that she bought me a Nissan 370Z because it has the symbol for Oz on the side: A circle with a “Z” in the center.
