Have you had one of those moments where something you thought you knew to be the truth since childhood suddenly gets blown out of the water? I had that happen to me today.... I read the original "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz." Dorothy wears silver shoes and the story doesn't end when Oz goes up in the balloon and leaves Dorothy behind, so Glinda can help her home. No. From there, Dorothy and her friends go on a journey across the country and meet little China dolls; tigers, elephants, and bears (oh my!); Hammer Head Men; and are brought to the witch Glinda by none other than the Winged Monkeys! What! And a Golden Hat had everything to do with it? Dorothy didn't even sing The Song.
