If you were unfamiliar with L. Frank Baum’s Wizard of Oz and read a description of the elements of the story, you’d likely see a list something like the following:
- a haunted castle with flying monkeys, a poppy field
- a tornado in Kansas, a village populated by wee folk
- a forest of talking foul-tempered trees
- a cornfield with a sentient scarecrow
- and a yellow brick road (YBR for short).
