Dorothy longs to go home after a scary encounter with the Wicked Witch of the West, who wants the Ruby Slippers Glinda the Good Witch has put on the young girl's feet. Dorothy must now follow the yellow brick road to the Emerald City to ask the Wizard of Oz to return her to Kansas.

Unlikely friends like The Scarecrow, The Tin Man, and The Cowardly Lion join Dorothy and Toto as they journey through the Land of Oz. Will the group of new-found friends make it to the Emerald City and have their wishes granted? Do they already have everything they were looking for all along? Follow them on their journey to find the Wizard of Oz in this first official illustrated adaptation of the iconic film.
