The Wonderful Wizard of Oz in Verse.The Wonderful Wizard of Oz needs no real introduction in itself, for it is a classic, and this version is no different, other than the fact that it is written in verse, as a poem.Dorothy, along with her dog Toto, are sucked into a cyclone, as L.Frank Baum expresses it, and is swept to a strange land called Oz. Here she ventures to find a way home, befriending several, unique friends along the way, including the Scarecrow, The Cowardly Lion, and the Tin Woodman.
