While i was reading the Wizard of oz an odd idea came to mind. that maybe Dorothy was actually having a mental breakdown and that all the characters within the novel were actually part of her. i must say that this made the read much more entertaining. i enjoy the novel, i just wish i read it when i was child or teenager. Then the whole life lesson part of the novel would of been more interesting to me. but reading Wizard of Oz as though it was a mental break down was rather interesting because that ment for the novel she wasn't actually trying to get home, she was more trying to find and save herself. After reading the novel i wanted to see if there was anything to my idea of the wizard of Oz being a mental breakdown, i didn't find anything on that but i did find an interesting article that said that the Wizard of Oz was actually a modern talk on politics at the time. the author of the article was calling the emerald city Washington and the wizard was the president at the time. i found this to be rather interesting but it sounds to much like a conspiracy theory.
