Follow Dorothy Gale over the rainbow into one of the most beloved fantasy worlds ever created. The Wizard of Oz tells the unforgettable story of a Kansas girl who is carried by a cyclone to the magical Land of Oz, where she encounters the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, the Cowardly Lion, and a journey that will become one of the defining adventures in children's literature.
Seeking a way home, Dorothy and her companions travel the Yellow Brick Road to the Emerald City, hoping the mysterious Wizard can grant their wishes. Along the way they face witches, enchanted creatures, and unexpected challenges that reveal the true meaning of courage, intelligence, compassion, and friendship.
