Little girl Dorothy and Uncle Henry and Aunt Em live on the Great Plains of Kansas. One day, she and her dog Toto are swept away, along with their house, by a tornado to a fairy-tale kingdom called the Land of Oz. Her house lands just as it crushes the Wicked Witch of the East, who had been oppressing the Munchkins. The Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman are very grateful to her and tell her that she can go to Emerald City to ask the Wizard of Oz for help to return home. So Dorothy puts on the Silver Slippers of the Wicked Witch of the East and, with Toto, begins her journey to Emerald City. Along the way, she meets several very ordinary friends—the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, and the Cowardly Lion. The Scarecrow wants a brain, the Tin Woodman wants a heart, and the Cowardly Lion wants courage. After experiencing a series of thrilling adventures, do they meet the Wizard of Oz? Can they fulfill their wishes? Open this book and join Dorothy on her journey into the magical Land of Oz!
