boy," he explained, puffing out his cheeks importantly as Randy came to
stand beside the throne, "I have done MY part to save your little Princess,
and now you must do yours! Unfortunately," Jinnicky's face grew long and
dolorous, "unfortunately, Planetty and Thun, from this time on, will be
unable to exist on Anuther Planet, so now, without a home or country, what
will become of them?" In mock distress, the Red Jinn stared down at his
young friend.
"Oh, Jinnicky! How wonderful! Oh, Jinnicky, do you mean it? Thank you! Thank
you! THANK YOU!" Pressing the little Jinn's hands, Randy went racing across
the throne room. "Planetty," he whispered breathlessly in the little
Princess's ear, "how would you like to be Queen of Regalia, to go back to
Oz with Thun, Kabumpo and me and live in my castle for always?"
"Oh, I think C4" Planetty's soft yellow eyes fairly danced with surprise
and happiness "C4 I think that would be very nite. Oh, Randy, that would
be netiful, netiful!"
CHAPTER 20
KING AND QUEEN OF REGALIA
The feast to celebrate Randy's and Planetty's wedding was the grandest and
merriest in all the merry annals of Oz and Ev. It was, in fact, a double

celebration. The Red Jinn's return and his victory over Gludwig was enough
to keep his subjects cheering for days, and to honor his rescuers and
especially the little Princess of Anuther Planet and her royal consort, the
Evians outdid themselves, putting on one show after another. There were
parades and pageants, fireworks and speeches, and so many presents and
parties it makes me jealous just to think of them. Over and over again
Planetty and Thun rejoiced in their new life and way of living, and eating
the delicacies prepared by Jinnicky's chef was not the least of its
privileges. In the Red Jinn's castle, eating was a pleasure as well as a
necessity. But after a month's merry stay, during which every point of
interest in Jinnicky's vast realm was visited, the travelers bade the
little Jinn a hearty and affectionate adieu.
Mounting Kabumpo and Thun and laden with gifts and good wishes, the young
King and Queen set out for the Land of Oz and their own royal castle. Uncle
Hoochafoo had already received his instructions, and as Randy had
predicted, things were very gay, very different, and very cozy in that
regal and mountainous little Kingdom. Planetty's staff, powerful as ever,
was a great help and protection to the young rulers, and the small red
handbag that packed itself went on many journeys with the little Queen of
the country.
If this story were the beginning instead of ending, I could tell you a whole
book of adventures they had traveling with Kabumpo and Thun through the
great Land of Oz, for these days the Elegant Elephant spends almost as much
time with Randy and Planetty as he does with the Royal Family of
Pumperdink, and most of it in travel. And in Oz, what a gay way one
travels! The other morning as I lay dreaming of them all, I got to thinking

how nite it would be if the horses on milk wagons here were all soundless
gallopers like Thun!
