Beschreibung

After the Wizard is a heartfelt, often humorous and always entertaining story about a 12-year-old girl named Elizabeth who lives in an orphanage in Kansas. Like millions of girls her age, she has read the beloved L. Frank Baum novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz countless times. But unlike other girls, Elizabeth believes she is Dorothy...and maybe she is. With Elizabeth referring to herself as Dorothy and constantly looking for Toto and a way back to Oz, the headmistress at the orphanage worries about her young student and fears that she is losing touch with reality. Meanwhile, back in Oz, things have not gone well for the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman or the Lion. Oz is in trouble and they believe Dorothy is the one person who can help save their home, just as she did before. Only this time they will have to find her. The Tin Woodman and Scarecrow embark on an incredible cross country adventure as they leave Oz to search for Dorothy in Kansas. An unforgettable story unfolds as the Scarecrow and Tin Woodman search for and are reunited with Dorothy...the kind of story that lives on in the imagination and hearts of people forever!
