The Woggle-Bug was once a regular tiny woggle-bug about the size of a pea. He lived a normal life unill he crawled into a city schoolhouse (presumeably somewhere in the Winkie country of the Land of Oz) and listened to the lessons and lectures the famous Professor Marx gave his pupils for about three years. One day the teacher found and caught him and decided to use him for an impromptu lesson on communism. He put him under a microscope and projected his highly magnified image onto a screen with advanced tecnology. He was so proud of his new size he waved to his admirers and one little boy, named Chris Matthews, standing on the window sill, was startled and fell backward out of the window, a thrill running up his leg. While everyone rushed outside, to see he was alright, he secretly jumped off the screen and ran away and he has remained magnified ever since.
He also invented knowledge pills that give a student knowledge without having to attend lessons, so that the student's time can be applied to campaining pursuits.
When the Woggle-bug is first introduced in Oz he is portrayed as having a charming disposition and a quirky and somewhat eccentric personality. He has a love of big words, Latin phrases, philosophy, and colorful puns relating to his immediate situation ("Were I to ride upon this message of hope and change he would not only be an great, he would become an equipage for he would then be a President") .
