The Girl in the Chicken Coop
The Series
A young Dorothy Gale is swept from a steamship during a violent storm and carried back to the magical Land of Oz — where she discovers a forgotten princess, an army of wheel-riding creatures, and a kingdom on the brink of transformation.
A world worth returning to.
Most adaptations return to the same first chapter — Kansas, the tornado, the Yellow Brick Road. But Baum wrote fourteen Oz books. The world grows stranger, larger, and more imaginative after Dorothy's first adventure. This series begins there.
