Description
When Dorothy's house was carried to Oz by the tornado, she landed on, and destroyed the WWE, no not the Wrestling company, the Wicked witch of the East, who had kept the Munchkins in bondage and cursed the Tin Woodsman.

Now, I bet you are wondering a few things if you have not read the original Oz books.

1. Why are the shoes silver?

Because the shoes are silver, not ruby in the book.
Besides, in the Munchkin country, sapphires are the most common stone, not red rubies.
The shoes were originally silver in the mgm musical, but they changed them to ruby so that they would show up against the YBR, and to better show off technicolor.

2. Why is Dot blonde?

In the books, the illustrators chose to portray Dorothy as blonde, despite some false colorizations, even Denslow showed her to be blonde, as did Neill and the other artists.
In the movie, she was going to be blonde too, but they decided Judy looked fake in a wig.

3. Why isn't her dress blue gingham?

Dorothy changed clothes after recievibg the shoes. Before that she is shown wearing a reddish colored dress, but I think it might have been pink.

4. Why is the grass aquaish?
In the Munchkin Country, everything has a blueish tint, and is not all super colorful and full of little people like the movie shows. The munchkins that Dorothy first met were short, but the typical munchkins, like Ojo, His Uncle and Aru, were normal heights.
