Why?
I fell in love with a girl. But the girl lived with an old woman who
didn't want us to marry, so she asked the Wicked Witch of the
East to turn me into a Tin Man with no heart
. I want a new heart
so that I can love her again and marry her."
hope the Great Oz can help you," said Dorothy. “Do you know
how far it is to the Emerald City?"
* don't know how far it is," said the Tin Man, "but I know it is
a dangerous journey."
Just then, they heard a loud roar. A Lion ran out of the forest
and stood in the road in front of them.
"Don't bite Toto!" shouted Dorothy.
"I didn't bite him," he said.
"No, but you wanted to!" said Dorothy. "You're just a coward!"
"I know," said the Lion sadly. "I'm a coward. I'm afraid of
everything. I need some courage.
"Come to the Emerald City with us. Maybe the Great Oz can
help all of us!"
Dorothy and her new friends followed the yellow brick road out
of the forest. After some time, they saw a green light shining in
the distance.
"That's where the Great Oz lives!" said Dorothy.
