The Wizard Of Oz
Dorothy, a young girl from Kansas, is swept away to the magical land of Oz by a tornado, leaving behind her Aunt Em and Uncle Henry. In Oz, she befriends a Scarecrow in need of a brain, a Tin Man seeking a heart, and a Cowardly Lion in search of courage. Together, they journey along the Yellow Brick Road to the Emerald City, where the Wizard is believed to possess the power to send Dorothy home.
Back in Kansas, Aunt Em and Uncle Henry are worried about Dorothy’s disappearance. Meanwhile, in Oz, the Wicked Witch of the West becomes a formidable adversary, seeking revenge against Dorothy for inadvertently causing the demise of her sister, the Wicked Witch of the East. The witch’s dark presence adds tension to Dorothy’s quest, creating challenges for her and her newfound friends.
As Dorothy and her companions confront the perils of Oz, they discover the Wizard’s true nature and the realisation that they had the qualities they sought all along. The story weaves together themes of friendship, self-discovery, and the triumph of good over evil, making “The Wizard of Oz” a beloved and enduring tale.
