Chapter 1 Original Order
Folklore, myths and fairy tales have accompanied people through childhood for centuries. Every healthy child has an instinctive heartfelt love for strange, wonderful, and unreal stories. The winged fairies of the Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen bring joy to the minds of children far more than any other work ever created by man.
But the old fairy tales that people have been telling for generations may now be antiques in children's libraries, and the time has come for a new "magical story". In the new story, the old and clichéd monsters, dwarves and fairies will all be gone, and all kinds of scary and creepy plots will disappear along with them. These are all deliberately designed by the author to highlight a daunting moral lesson. Modern education already encompasses moral development, so children only need to find fun in magical stories, and no longer have to read boring and boring sermons.

With such a heart, for the sake of the happiness of today's children, I wrote the story "The Wizard of Oz". Expect this modern fairy tale to retain surprise and joy, and abandon heartache and nightmares.
