by L. Frank (Lyman Frank) Baum
"The Enchanted Island of Yew" by L. Frank Baum is a children's fantasy novel published in 1903. A bored fairy convinces three mortal girls to transform her into a human boy for one year. Now called Prince Marvel, this adventurous newcomer sets out across the island of Yew with magical weapons and an enchanted steed. Along the way, Marvel encounters peculiar challenges: a reformed bandit king, a glittering dragon without fire, twin rulers who share one mind, and fraudulent magicians—all in a quest to bring peace to a land overrun by rogues.
