A journey from Kansas to Oz

A tornado carries Dorothy and her dog, Toto, from Kansas to the magical land of Oz, setting a journey toward home in motion. Following the yellow brick road to the Emerald City, Dorothy travels with the Tin Woodman, the Scarecrow and the Cowardly Lion, all hoping the mysterious Wizard can help them. The story’s shape is that of a shared quest: its companions and destinations give the adventure a clear path, while the contrast between Kansas and Oz frames Dorothy’s longing to return.

Book overview

Dorothy thinks she is lost forever when a terrifying tornado crashes through Kansas and whisks her and her dog, Toto, far away to the magical land of Oz. To get home Dorothy must follow the yellow brick road to Emerald City and find the wonderfully mysterious Wizard of Oz. Together with her companions the Tin Woodman, the Scarecrow and the Cowardly Lion whom she meets on the way, Dorothy embarks on a strange and enchanting adventure. With a charming introduction by award-winning Cornelia Funke, The Wizard of Oz is one of the twenty wonderful classics being relaunched in Puffin Classics in March 2015.
