Journey to Oz
The Scarecrow's journey to Oz begins when he is blown away by a cyclone from his Kansas farm. He lands in the magical land of Oz and embarks on a quest to find the Wizard of Oz, who he believes can grant him a brain. Along the way, he meets Dorothy, a young girl from Kansas, and her three companions: the Tin Man, who needs a heart, and the Cowardly Lion, who lacks courage.
Together, the four friends face numerous challenges as they travel to the Emerald City, where the Wizard of Oz resides. They encounter dangerous animals, wicked witches, and other obstacles, but through their teamwork and determination, they overcome each challenge.
Lessons Learned
