The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is a true classic of American literature. This ebook edition of the beloved, timeless classic also features previews of No Place Like Oz and Dorothy Must Die by Danielle Paige—edgy, reimagined sequels to L. Frank Baum's original story that are perfect for fans of Cinder by Marissa Meyer, Beastly by Alex Flinn, and Wicked by Gregory Maguire.
Dorothy Gale found life as dull as the gray prairies that surrounded her Kansas home—until a cyclone transported her to a strange fairy-tale land known as Oz. There Dorothy discovers a wondrous place filled with Munchkins, flying monkeys, witches, and magic.
The only way for Dorothy and her dog, Toto, to return home to dear Uncle Henry and Aunt Em is to travel along the road of yellow brick to the Emerald City, where the all-powerful Wizard of Oz may be able to help her. Along the way, Dorothy befriends the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, and the Cowardly Lion, who also need the Wizard's help. But while Dorothy desperately tries to find her way back home, the Wicked Witch of the West will do whatever it takes to stop her.
