The Wizard Of Oz 13 & 14: The Rescue

You've seen the movie: now listen to the book and enjoy all its similarities and differences! It is the source material, not just for The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, but for all the contemporary movies in the Wicked series.

In the latest chapter of L Frank Baum's beloved story, once Dorothy, Toto, and the Lion have escaped from the Wicked Witch's castle, they must find their old friends, the Tin Woodman and the Scarecrow. They ask some of their new friends to help mend their broken bodies.

L Frank Baum openly admitted to being influenced by Lewis Carroll, the author of Alice in Wonderland and Alice through the Looking Glass. If you're enjoying The Wizard of Oz, you may enjoy these stories too, both narrated by me on Insight Timer.

Both are available, complete, on playlists. Download the Wizard of Oz playlist too, and listen to the tracks seamlessly. Tracks are added as they are published.

I’m so intrigued by all the feminist themes as well as the motif of freedom vs enslavement. So many layers to this story. Thanks Mandy 🙏🏻

One of my fav chapters in this series, thank you Mandy 🙏❤️ I especially enjoy the pre-reading snippets about the authors, in this case hearing about the revolt with knitting needles! Yesss!
