Order of Aunt Jane’s Nieces Books

L. Frank Baum, writing under the pseudonym Edith Van Dyne, created the Aunt Jane's Nieces series as a compelling collection of juvenile fiction aimed at readers who loved Louisa May Alcott's beloved Little Women and Little Men. At the heart of the series lies Jane Merrick, a wealthy woman facing her mortality who must choose which of her nieces will inherit her fortune.

The series follows these young women as they embark on travels and adventures, navigate romantic relationships, and experience the trials and triumphs of growing up. What begins as a question of inheritance evolves into a rich tapestry of coming-of-age stories.

Baum launched the series in 1906 with the inaugural Aunt Jane's Nieces novel, continuing the saga across ten books until its conclusion in 1918 with Aunt Jane's Nieces in the Red Cross. Here you'll find L. Frank Baum's complete Aunt Jane's Nieces series arranged in original publication order:
