The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
About
L. Frank Baum's classic adventure follows Dorothy, Toto, and their patchwork band of friends down the yellow brick road in search of the Great Wizard, told in seven episodes for young readers.
Episodes
1. The Cyclone and the Scarecrow
A Kansas cyclone carries Dorothy and Toto to the magical Land of Oz, where she sets off down a yellow brick road to find the Great Wizard and meets a friendly scarecrow who wishes he had a brain.
2. The Tin Woodman and the Cowardly Lion
Deeper into Oz, Dorothy and the Scarecrow stumble on a rusted Tin Woodman who has stood silent for a year, and a roaring Cowardly Lion who guards a secret about himself.
3. Across Dangerous Country
Between Dorothy and the Emerald City lie a bottomless ditch, tiger-headed Kalidahs, a swift river, and a field of deadly poppies. Each peril takes a new kind of friendship, and a kind Queen of the Field Mice, to survive.
4. The Emerald City
Dorothy and her friends reach the shining Emerald City at last and are granted audiences with the Great Oz, who appears to each of them in a different form and sets one terrible price for granting their wishes.
5. The Wicked Witch of the West
Dorothy and her friends march into the Winkie country to face the Wicked Witch. Her wolves, crows, bees, and Winged Monkeys come in turn, and Dorothy must find a way to stand against a magic stronger than anything she has met before.
6. The Humbug Behind the Curtain
The travelers return to Oz to claim the promises the Great Wizard made. But nothing in the throne room is what it seemed, and Dorothy must find a new way home.
7. The Long Way Home
With Oz behind them, Dorothy and her friends journey south through fighting trees, a fragile china country, and a hill of Hammer-Heads to reach Glinda the Good, the only one left who might know how to send Dorothy home.
