There are different versions. Wicked, by gregory maguire discusses the WWoW throughout her life and addresses it as an issue from birth. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum does not say why the water hurt her but it doesn't talk about her really prior to Dorthy being in Oz, nor does the movie by MGM, Maguire developed her backstory. But in the book by Baum nowhere is it even mentioned that the witch is green! That was all Hollywood, but Maguire kept that. All three are great!

i could have self belief that she had the Winkies scrubbing flooring. additionally, it does no longer be unusual to have water quite some places in a house or fort. even with each thing, there would be no plumbing, which contains no faucets or perhaps pumps. bear in mind the term that L. Frank Baum grew to become into writing in, besides via fact the era the action picture grew to become into made in. many individuals grew up with little or no luxuries interior the homestead. i will bear in mind human beings having buckets of "ingesting water" set out. So, there could be quite a few motives for it, no longer in trouble-free terms as a convenience for the tale. EDIT: i do no longer bear in mind the info of the scene, however the different poster has a factor: perchance Dorothy grew to become into being compelled to paintings.

Nope, she had this weird allergy. Dr. Bombay couldn't even cure her. Oh my stars did she stink! In 500 years she never had a bath! Now you know why she had green skin! She was kind of bee-yutch, so no one was sorry to see her go.
