=== Other works by L. Frank Baum provide examples of: ===
* [[Cameo Prop]]: Baum died before MGM's version of ''[[The Wizard of Oz (Film)|The Wizard of Oz]]'' was filmed, but, in a remarkable coincidence, Frank Morgan as Professor Marvel wore a secondhand coat that turned out to have belonged to the author. (It's true; [[Snopes]] [http://www.snopes.com/movies/films/ozcoat.asp confirms it].)
* [[Cloudcuckooland]]: A lot of his fictional countries, but especially Mo in ''The Magical Monarch of Mo''. For point of reference, this is a place where the treatment for sore throat is to remove a person's neck, turn it inside out, put it out to ''[http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Curing_:Curing (food_preservation)food preservation)|cure]]'', turn it right-side-in again, and put the person's neck back. You can also get out of a deep pit by pushing the side so hard it flips the pit upside-down so you're at the top, not the bottom.
* [[Level Ate]]
* [[The Mirror Shows Your True Self]]: In ''Queen Zixi of Ix'', Queen Zixi can only make herself look beautiful to others because of this trope. Her reflection shows her true age, which is considerable.
