Explore "Queen Zixi of IX" by L. Frank Baum on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Bud and Fluff were surprised at the magnificence of the city of Ix. The witch-queen had reigned there so many centuries that she found plenty of time to carry out her ideas; and the gardens, shrubbery, and buildings were beautifully planned and cared for.
The splendid palace of the queen was in the center of a delightful park, with white marble walks leading up to the front door.
