"The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" by L. Frank Baum is a children's novel written in 1900. When a cyclone sweeps young Dorothy and her dog Toto from Kansas to the magical Land of Oz, she discovers only one way home: she must destroy the Wicked Witch of the West. Joined by a Scarecrow seeking brains, a Tin Woodman wanting a heart, and a Cowardly Lion desiring courage, Dorothy follows the yellow brick road to seek help from the mysterious Wizard of Oz.
