Published in 1910, the story follows Dorothy Gale, her Uncle Henry, and Aunt Em as they journey to the Emerald City to escape the dreary life on their Kansas farm. Throughout their adventure, Dorothy and her companions meet a host of fantastical characters, including the Shaggy Man, the Tin Woodman, the Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion. Together, they explore the wonders of Oz, from the enchanted forests of Winkie Country to the breathtaking vistas of the Quadling region. Along the way, they encounter a series of challenges that test their courage, wit, and teamwork. One of the strengths of "The Emerald City of Oz" is Baum's imaginative world-building.
