Is the Wicked Witch friends with the Good Witch in 'The Wizard of Oz'?

No, neither one of the Wicked Witches appears to be friends with either one of the Good Witches in the original 1900 book edition of "The Wizard of Oz."
In the original book, the two bad witches are the Wicked Witches of the East and of the West. The two good witches are the Good Witch of the North and Glinda the Good of the South.
In the beloved 1939 movie version of "The Wizard of Oz" likewise does it seem unlikely that the two bad witches may be considered friends of the one good witch, Glinda the Good of the North.
But in "Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West," a subsequently published prequel by Gregory Maguire (b. June 9, 1954), the two bad witches are given the names of Nessarose of the East and Elphaba of the West. Elphaba and Glinda the Good start out on bad terms, but end up fast friends. Given the roller coater start to their interaction, it is entirely believable that the two go from enmity to friendship to back to enmity.

What role does Glinda the Good Witch play in 'The Wizard of Oz'?
The source of Dorothy's worst nightmare and most steadfast hope is the role played by Glinda the Good Witch in "The Wizard of Oz."Specifically, Glinda gives the slippers of the Wicked Witch of the East to Dorothy Gale in the beloved 1939 film version, but not the original 1900 book edition, of "The Wizard of Oz." This puts Dorothy in direct conflict with the Wicked Witch of the West, who knows about the shoes' powerful magic. Dorothy ultimately succeeds in defeating the witch, but not in figuring out how to get back to Kansas. But it turns out that Glinda does.

What does Dorothy steal from the Wicked Witch of the West?
Answer #1Well, your question is a bit deceiving. While the answer might seem obvious, it is not really, as Dorothy Gale did not actually steal the notorious magical silver shoes - or ruby slippers, as played in the movie - from the Wicked Witch of the West. She removed them from the lifeless body of the Wicked Witch of the East, her sister, just after that body went "Poof!" While the Wicked Witch of the West seriously desired those shoes (slippers), they never truly belonged to her from which to then be later stolen. What Dorothy really "stole" from WWW was the life of WWE...Answer #2The Golden Cap, with which the Wicked Witch of the West had summoned the winged monkeys; and food for the journey to the Emerald City. Both were in the Witch's cupboard in her Yellow Palace. Dorothy removed them after the death of the Wicked Witch of the West.Answer #3She also stole the broom of the Wicked Witch of the West after the witch died. She took the broom back to the Wizard. That was her deal with the Wizard. If she brings back the broom of the WWW, then the Wizard will help her get back home to Kansas and also help her friends Scarecrow, Tinman and the Lion.
