About this listen

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was an instant bestseller in 1900. Thirty-nine more official Oz books followed, as well as other derivative works like Broadway musicals, films, comic books, cartoons, sitcom parodies and more. IDEAS follows the proverbial yellow brick road to uncover how this seemingly simple story of friendship, self reliance and longing for home continues to speak to us, 125 years after it was published.
