Il cielo profuma di neve, si accendono le luci sugli alberi della città. Arriva il periodo più bello dell'anno! Ma com'era il Natale quando al posto delle auto, c'erano le carrozze trainate dai cavalli? Com'era quando non c'erano i centri commerciali, ma le botteghe dei falegnami e i laboratori dei giocattolai? Com'era quando il pane si faceva in casa e invece del riscaldamento c'era la stufa a legna? Com'era quando tutta la famiglia si riuniva per il pranzo natalizio intorno alla tavola illuminata dalle candele e decorata con il vischio e le bacche di agrifoglio? Ce lo raccontano i grandi autori della letteratura, in questa raccolta di racconti e brani di romanzi storie straordinarie che sono ormai entrate a far parte della nostra tradizione natalizia. Età di da 8 anni.

Dorothy e il suo amato cane Toto vengono sollevati da un tornado e depositati nella terra Blu dei Munchkin, ma nell'atterraggio schiacciano la strega cattiva dell'Est. La strega buona del Nord viene a complimentarsi con Dorothy per quanto avvenuto, donandole le scarpette d'argento della defunta strega. E le spiega, poi, che in tutto il paese di Oz (così si chiama quel luogo fantastico) esistono quattro streghe, di cui due buone (la strega del Nord e la strega del Sud) e due cattive (la defunta strega dell'Est e la strega dell'Ovest). Ma in realtà Dorothy è poco interessata alla storia, vuole solo tornare subito a casa, dagli zii nel Kansas. A quel punto, la strega le consiglia di recarsi dal mago di Oz, l'unico che potrebbe aiutarla. Per trovarlo, le dice, sarà sufficiente seguire la "strada di mattoni gialli" fino alla città di Smeraldo. Dopo aver incontrato tre nuovi compagni di viaggio, e con difficoltà aver superato numerosi mostri e prove, Dorothy riesce finalmente a raggiungere la città e, dopo altre avventure, a incontrare finalmente il famoso mago, che altri non è che un ventriloquo americano che con la sua mongolfiera aveva raggiunto per sbaglio quella terra misteriosa. Alla fine, Dorothy riuscirà a tornare a casa. Il segreto era sempre stato alla sua portata. Le scarpette d'argento che le aveva donato la strega buona del Nord potevano portarla là dove desiderava di più.
