What are some differences between the book and movie?

In the movie, Glinda is the name of the Good Witch Of The North who returns to show Dorothy how to use the Ruby Slippers to go home. In the book, however, the Good Witch of the North's name is not given, and she does not know how to use the power of the silver shoes, which is why Dorothy must journey to visit Glinda, the Good Witch Of The South, who does know their secret. The faux "moral" about having to learn never to desire anything outside her own back yard is thus unnecessary and is not present in the book. Also the Tin Woodman's name is changed to simply the Tin Man, although he is obviously a woodsman.
Another important difference between the novel and the film is the portrayal of Dorothy Gale, whose character was not only aged but severely weakened: at no point in the novel, for example, is Dorothy a damsel in distress to be rescued by her companions; in fact it is Dorothy who must take charge of the rescue operation of her friends after the witch is dispatched.
You can find more difference a that source.

Wizard, of direction. For the easy reason that throughout 1939, particular outcomes, demonstrate screen photographs, Animation, digital, and so Very Many tech marvels weren't Created, Nonexistent then. "They Did All by using Hand, With actual Sweat, and by using Years", till the movie replaced into accomplished for the everyday public. The Wizard of oz..is between the eternal classics in movie background, and between the final achievements of all situations basically because of the fact of those reasons, between many, many others.

The bbok was terrible, There were little mice who carried the lion out of the poppies, for example. Wicked, on the other hand, throws a whole new perspective on OZ.

Never read the book but the movie was pretty good when it first came out. Sick of the re-runs
