Our Review
A young girl named Dorothy and her dog Toto are swept away from their Kansas farm by a cyclone and deposited in the magical, and sometimes dangerous, land of Oz. To find her way home, she befriends three iconic companions—a Scarecrow in need of a brain, a Tin Woodman longing for a heart, and a Cowardly Lion seeking courage—and they embark on a journey along the yellow brick road to petition the mysterious Wizard of Oz for help.
This classic American fairy tale is far more than a simple quest narrative; it is a profound exploration of self-reliance, friendship, and the idea that we often already possess the qualities we seek from others. Readers who enjoy rich world-building, from Munchkins to flying monkeys, and timeless themes of discovery will find a story that continues to resonate deeply. The journey to the Emerald City remains a powerful and enduring allegory for finding your own way home.
