‘Tru­e courage is in facing danger when you are afraid…’

One minute young Dorothy is playing with her dog Toto, the next minute she’s flying.

A powerful tornado whisks her miles and miles away, dropping her into the mystical land of Oz where nothing is as it seems. Now she must follow the yellow brick road to Emerald City, to find the only person who can help her — the wonderful Wizard of Oz.

As Dorothy sets off on her strange quest, she is joined by a scarecrow who seeks a brain, a tin man who longs for a heart, and a cowardly lion who is desperate for some courage. Together with her newfound friends, Dorothy must embark on an exciting adventure, meeting a host of enchanting creatures along the way.

Will Dorothy ever get home? Or will the Wicked Witch of the West and her flying monkeys catch her first? Read The Wizard of Oz to find out.

L. Frank Baum

L. Frank Baum was born in New York in 1856. The Wizard of Oz, published in 1900, was based on a story he used to tell his own children. It became an international bestseller and was subsequently adapted into a stage play (1902) and a film starring Judy Garland (1939). Baum wrote thirteen further Oz books, alongside numerous other novels, short stories, scripts and poems. After his death in 1919, his publishers carried on producing Oz stories and didn’t stop until 1963.
