The story begins on a farm in Kansas, where a girl named Dorothy lives with her aunt and uncle. One day a violent storm strikes, and a tornado carries the main character and her dog to the magical land of Oz. Dorothy sets out on an adventurous journey, meets new friends, and together they overcome obstacles and dangers. L. Frank Baum's novel The Wizard of Oz has inspired numerous film adaptations.
