The Road to Oz

By: Baum, L. Frank

Dorothy and her friend, Polychrome, find themselves on a road through some strange places, to the Land of the Winkies, and on to beautiful Emerald City. But why are they there, and how did they get there? Princess Ozma of Oz sent for them, and the Cowardly Lion and the Scarecrow, of course, to take part in her lavish birthday celebration."Please, miss," said the shaggy man, "can you tell me the road to Butterfield?"Dorothy looked him over. Yes, he was shaggy, all right; but there was a twinkle in his eye that seemed pleasant."Oh, yes," she replied; "I can tell you. But it isn't this road at all.""No?""You cross the ten-acre lot, follow the lane to the highway, go north to the five branches, and take-let me see-""To be sure, miss; see as far as Butterfield, if you like," said the shaggy man."You take the branch next the willow stump, I b'lieve; or else the branch by the gopher holes; or else--""Won't any of 'em do, miss?""'Course not, Shaggy Man. You must take the right road to get to Butterfield."
