What is ironic about 'The Wonderful Wizard of Oz'?

Every character has a characteristic they want. The scarecrow wants a brain, the tin woodman wants a heart, the lion wanted courage. The scarecrow wanted brains to think intelligent thoughts while he comes up with all the ideas to get across obstacles. The tin woodman wants a heart to feel emotions but he already does. He cries every time someone wants to step on a bug. He also weeps when the Lion offers to kill something for Dorothy to eat. The lion wants courage to be well... courageous. He wants to be courageous but he already is by jumping across a deep ditch 6 times and scare off beasts with tiger heads and bear bodies.


How was the Stork important to the story in the book The Wizard of Oz?

Dorothy, her pet dog Toto, and her friends came to a great ditch. They were able to cross it, one by one, on the Cowardly Lion's back. They then continued down the Yellow Brick Road, through the forested domains of the dreaded part-bear, part-tiger Kalidahs. The five friends came to a waterbody that was way wider than the Lion could leap over. So the Tin Woodman cut down some trees and made a raft. As the five friends were rafting across the river, the Scarecrow got his pole stuck in the river bottom's mud. He was left clinging to the pole in the middle of the river. The raft followed the prevailing current, and so the four proceeded without the Scarecrow. But shortly thereafter they met the Stork, who flew back to grab the Scarecrow off the pole and leave him on the riverbank with his friends.

Why is the movie the Wizard of Oz so scary?

The Cowardly Lion was afraid of everything, because he thought himself lacking in courage. Ironically, he showed himself to be quite courageous. For he leaped across a deep, wide ditch three times, in order to get Dorothy and her pet dog Toto, the Tin Woodman, and the Scarecrow safely on track to the Yellow Brick Road. And he scared the enslaved but ferocious Winkies away from attacking and killing him and his four friends.
