The Wizard Of Oz. 4: The Road Through The Forest

In the fourth chapter of L Frank Baum's masterpiece, Dorothy and the Scarecrow set off for the Emerald City along the yellow brick road. Along the way, the Scarecrow tells her the story of how he was made (the day before yesterday) by a farmer and what it is like when you have no brains.

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 will definitely enjoy these stories too, both narrated by me on Insight Timer.

Both of these books are available, complete, on playlists. Feel free to download the Wizard of Oz playlist too from the InsightTimer App, and listen to the tracks seamlessly. Tracks added as they are published.
