The story follows a young girl named Dorothy who is swept away by a tornado from her home in Kansas to the magical Land of Oz. In this strange new world, she meets a scarecrow in need of a brain, a tin man who wants a heart, and a cowardly lion who wants courage. Together, they embark on a journey to meet the Wizard of Oz, hoping he can help them with their problems. Along the way, they encounter various obstacles and characters, both friendly and dangerous, as they make their way to the Wizard's city of emeralds. In the end, they discover that the Wizard is not the all-powerful being they thought he was, and that the answers they were seeking were within themselves all along. With its timeless themes of friendship, determination, and self-discovery, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is a beloved classic of children's literature.
The Wizard of Oz is the first fantasy written by an American. Its evocative use of the forces of nature in its plots and produced powerful effect on the American imagination. The story follows Dorothy, a young orphaned girl raised by her Uncle Henry and Aunt Em in the bleak landscape of a Kansas farm. She has a little black dog Toto, who is her sole source of happiness on the dry, gray prairies. One day the farmhouse, with Dorothy and Toto inside, is caught up in a cyclone and deposited in a field in Munchkin Country, the eastern quadrant of the Land of Oz. The falling house kills the evil ruler of the Munchkins, the Wicked Witch of the East.
