Adventures of the Yellow Brick Road

     I just watched an exciting, adventurous movie called, The Wizard of OzI laughed and screamed as I watched it.  This movie had me waiting on the edge of my seat for what would happen next!

     It starts with this beautiful girl, named Dorothy, who was lifted up in a tornado and moved from Kansas to Oz.  She meets Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Lion.  Dorothy misses her family and wants to go back home.  Scarecrow wants a brain, Tin Man wants a heart, and Lion wants courage.  They have to see the wizard to see if he will give them what they wish.  The Wicked Witch of the West is trying to make their journey a hard one.   She casts spells on them to try to keep them from seeing the great wizard.

     My favorite part is when Dorothy is at Munchkin Land.  This is the first place she visits in Oz.  All of the munchkins come out and welcome her.  They all sing a little song for Dorothy.  I love songs and dances.  Every time I see this part and I want to sing along with the munchkins.

     I won't tell you the ending of this movie because I think you should watch it yourself.  This movie is filled with songs, laughs, and tears.  It is a great movie about friendship and dreams.
