"Lyman" is the name of his father's brother, but he always disliked it and preferred his middle name "Frank." The Sea Fairies is a children's fantasy novel published in 1911 by the Reilly & Britton Company, the publisher of Baum's series of Oz books. Baum dedicated the book to the otherwise-unknown "Judith of Randolph, Massachusetts" most likely one of the child readers who corresponded with the author.
