In The Wizard of Oz, as you may remember, a little girl named Dorothy is carried away (or dreams she is) from her Kansas home to the land of the Munchkins. She is told by the lovable little people of the place that if she wishes to return home, she must follow a yellow brick road all the way to the wise Wizard of Oz.
During her journey Dorothy meets a scarecrow who thinks he needs a brain, a tin woodman who is convinced he lacks a heart, and a lion wanting courage. The four of them join forces.
After a frightening journey each stands before the Wizard of Oz. Each presents his problem. Flashing and sparking amid his awesome paraphernalia, the Wizard promises to grant their requests in return for the accomplishment of a task.
