What did The Tin Man Scarecrow and Lion want?
On the long journey to the Emerald City, Dorothy and Toto are joined by the Scarecrow, who wishes he had brains; the Tin Woodman, who longs for a heart; and the Cowardly Lion, who seeks courage.
How does Dorothy get the Scarecrow down from the post?
When Dorothy was left alone she began to feel hungry. So she went to the cupboard and cut herself some bread, which she spread with butter. She gave some to Toto, and taking a pail from the shelf she carried it down to the little brook and filled it with clear, sparkling water.
What did the Scarecrow learn?
He’s delighted to learn that the witch is dead. The travelers return to Oz. Even when the Scarecrow learns the Wizard is a fake, he demands a brain. The Scarecrow gets his brain!
Who does the Scarecrow represent in The Wizard of Oz?
the farmers
Since Dorothy is the main character, we can see that the American population was the main focus. The Scarecrow represents the farmers in America. In the story, the Scarecrow is in need of a brain, which shows that he might not be the brightest one on the journey.
Who is the Scarecrow in The Wizard of Oz?
The Scarecrow, Dorothy’s first friend from Oz, is found on her journey to the Wizard, tied to a post with his hay stuffing on the ground. Dorothy comes to his rescue and cuts him down, just to realize how clumsy he is as he falls all over the place and more stuffing falls out. She helps him get all of his hay back, and shoos away the crows.
Why does Tin Woodman Cry in The Wizard of Oz?
The Tin Woodman reveals his heart or ability to feel for others when he cries after accidentally killing a beetle “for he was always careful not to hurt any living creature, and . . . he wept several tears of sorrow and regret.” He also cries when they lose track of the Scarecrow and when Dorothy leaves to return to Kansas.
Why does the Tin Woodman think the Scarecrow lacks brains?
The Scarecrow believes he lacks brains, the Tin Woodman believes he lacks heart (emotion), and the Cowardly Lion believes he lacks courage. All three reveal they have precisely the trait they are certain they lack. This shows that what we do is more important than what we say, or, as the cliche goes, that actions speak louder than words.
Who are the companions in The Wizard of Oz?
As Dorothy and Toto travel, they meet three companions: A Scarecrow, a Tin Woodman, and a Cowardly Lion. Each lack something—the Scarecrow needs a brain, the Tin Woodman needs a heart, and the Lion needs courage—so Dorothy suggests they all travel to the Emerald City together to ask the Wizard for help.
