The Wizard of Oz
Folklore, legends, myths and fairy
tales have followed childhood through the ages, for every youngster has
a wholesome and instinctive love for stories fantastic, marvelous and
manifestly unreal. The winged fairies of Grimm and Andersen have brought more
happiness to childish hearts than all other human creations.
The
story of "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" was written solely to please
children. It aspires to being a modernized fairy tale.
L. Frank Baum
Chicago, April, 1900.
