Jenny is goaded into running against Princess Ozma as ruler of Oz. These additions include creatures who live in the Deadly Desert called Heelers, who live on votes. Neill's text of The Wonder City of Oz was rewritten by an anonymous editor at Reilly & Lee, and that editor added some controversial changes to the story, in particular, involving Jenny Jump. Jenny is not a fan of the traditional, single-color fashions favored by the Ozites, and she sets up a shop with a magic turnstile that dresses people according to their personalities. With her fairy foot, she leaps all the way to the Land of Oz, to begin her adventures. Still, Jenny has remarkable new abilities. In the midst of this psychedelia, however, Jenny's gaze falters, and the leprechaun eludes her control, leaving her part-fairy and part-human. She wishes to become a fairy, and the leprechaun transforms her.
She is clever enough to capture him with her stare, so that the leprechaun, called Siko Pompus must grant her a wish. Jenny begins as a fifteen-year-old in New Jersey, who one day finds a leprechaun stealing her cheese.
Jenny Jump is an important character in the four Oz books of John R.
