The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

The Tin Woodman sees a mouse fleeing for her life from a fierce wildcat. He chops the cat’s head off with his ax. The mouse introduces herself as the Queen of all the field mice and asks the group if there is anything she may do for them in return. The Scarecrow suggests that the mice could help them move their sleeping friend, the Lion, from the deadly poppy field. Under the Scarecrow’s direction, the Woodman makes a cart with wheels to transport the Lion.

With difficulty, the Woodman, the Scarecrow, and the mice manage to get the Lion on the cart and pull him to safety (the mice pull on a string attached to the cart, while the Scarecrow and the Woodman push from behind). Dorothy wakes up on the grass nearby and is surprised to find herself surrounded by mice.

The group is relieved that the Lion will be alright. Dorothy, Toto, the Woodman, and the Scarecrow sit by the Lion, waiting for him to wake up.

The Lion finally wakes up from his deep sleep. He is surprised to hear of the mice’s role in his rescue. The group rejoins the yellow-brick road.
