E-text prepared by Michael Gray
"Policeman Bluejay" by L. Frank Baum is a children's fantasy novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around two main characters, Twinkle and Chubbins, who, after encountering a wicked creature called a tuxix, are transformed into bird-like beings called skylarks. The narrative combines whimsical adventures with lessons about kindness and the inherent dangers of the natural world. At the start of the story, Twinkle and Chubbins find themselves lost in a great forest, where they meet a peculiar creature that pleads for their help. Instead, they receive a warning from a mysterious bird about the true identity of the creature, which they soon realize is the tuxix who has magical powers. As they are magically transformed into skylarks, they discover the joys and perils of life in the forest, aided by the titular policeman, Bluejay, who promises to guide and protect them. The opening sets the stage for a blend of adventure, lessons about nature, and the nuances of friendship within the enchanting realm of Baum's imaginative world.
