creature
The Gump
A flying thing assembled from sofas, palm leaves and a mounted head, brought to life to carry the company out of the palace.
First named in The Marvelous Land of Oz, ch. 17 — the earliest chapter using this name. A thing may appear before it is called this: Baum writes “the Winkies” long before anyone writes “Winkie Country”.
