Best Answer

That its appeal stands the tests of place and time is the reason why "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" is a classic book.

Specifically, a literary classic deals with themes to which people can relate regardless of the place or time in which they live. The description fits the children's book written by Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 - May 6, 1919) as America's first fairy tale. For example, the story line includes such enduring themes as appreciating family and home, defending what is right, following one's dream, making friends and realizing at one and the same time that a book can be judged by its cover and that appearances are deceiving.
