Sorry, but yes
That it deals with enchantments, little people, magic and wonderful endings and that it appeals to adults and childrenare reasons why "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" is a fairy tale.Specifically, a fairy tale does not have to have a fairy in it. The royal histories of Oz series has fairies, whose Queen Lurleen makes Oz possible. They just do not show up in the first book. Otherwise, author and Oz series originator Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 - May 6, 1919) describes his story the first American fairy tale for good reason. The book contains such fairy tale elements as the enchantment of the Tin Woodman, the little people in Munckinland, the magic of the witches, and the unusually happy ending in which the five friends each receives what he most desires. Additionally, the book appeals to children and the young at heart.
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is an American fairy tale. It was written so children would have a story without a hidden moral. That's all it is.
Yes
Yes. A tale is an account of an event, be it real or imagined. The Wizard of Oz is a fictional, imaginary, made-up account of Dorothy's and Toto's adventures in the land of Oz. Traditional tales tell stories in ways that fit in with the attitudes, behaviors, beliefs, and principles of a particular country, culture, or people. And The Wizard of Oz respects commonly accepted attitudes, beliefs, principles, and standards of behavior regarding right and wrong, good and evil.
A legend or fairy tale! :)
The most popular fairy tale book from "Once Upon a Time" is "Grimm's Fairy Tales."
Cinderella is the only fairytale I can think of right now that has a good fariy God mother. . . Unless you consider the Wizard of Oz a fairytale. Im just telling you right now the wizard of Oz is not considered a fairy tale
it is a fairy-tale story
It is a fable or a type of folk tale
fairy-tale
That the novel 'The Wizard of Oz' is no more and no less than the first successful American fairy tale is the safest and surest interpretation of the original 1900 book edition of 'The Wizard of Oz'. Author Lyman Frank Baum [May 15, 1856-May 6, 1919] left only one indication as to how he wanted the first book in his Royal Histories of Oz series to be interpreted. Specifically, in the book's 'Introduction', Baum describes the fairy tale heritage from other countries as being moralistic in purpose and nightmarish in effects. He explains that he wants his story to be an American spin on the fairy tale genre. He also explains that he's writing solely for the enjoyment and pleasure of children.
