The Green Dolphin of Oz is the very first Oz novel by March Laumer as it was
published on January 1, 1978 with illustrations by Lau Shiu Fan.
The book title is similar to Green Dolphin Street by Elizabeth Goudge, first published in 1944 and turned into a film in 1947, but the plots and characters are unrelated.
According to a review[1] in the The Baum Bugle, the book is "a clever, bizarre, and risqué fantasy" with a story that jumps in time and jumps among European locations, eventually reaching Oz.
