1 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:27,159 Speaker 1: Welcome sleep tight stories. Little Dorothy and Toto. Dorothy was 2 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 1: a little Kansas girl who once accidentally found the beautiful 3 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:35,159 Speaker 1: land of Oz and was invited to live there always. 4 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: Toto was Dorothy's small black dock with fuzzy, curly hair 5 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 1: and bright black eyes. Together, when they tired of the 6 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,440 Speaker 1: grandeur of the emerald city of Oz, they would wander 7 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 1: out into the country and all through the land, peering 8 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: into queer nooks and corners and having a good time 9 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: in their own simple way. There was a little wizard 10 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 1: living in Oz who was a faithful friend of Dorothy 11 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 1: and did not approve of her traveling alone in this way, 12 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 1: But the girl always laughed at the little man's fears 13 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: for her and said she was not afraid of anything 14 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: that might happen. One day, while on such a journey, 15 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: Dorothy and Toto found themselves among the wild wooded hills 16 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: at the southeast of Oz, a place usually avoided by 17 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: travelers because so many magical things abounded there. And as 18 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: they entered a forest path, the little girl noticed a 19 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: sign tacked to a tree which said look out for crinklink. 20 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: Toto could not talk, as many of the animals of 21 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: Oz can, for he was just a common Kansas dog. 22 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: But he looked at the signs so seriously that Dorothy 23 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: almost believed he could read it. And she knew quite 24 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: well that Toto understood every word she said to him. 25 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: Never mind crinklings, said she. I don't believe anything in 26 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: Oz will try to hurt us, Toto, And if I 27 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 1: get into trouble, you must take care of me. Woh woh, 28 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: said Toto, and Dorothy knew that meant a promise. The 29 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: path was narrow and wound here and there between the trees, 30 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: but they could not lose their way because thick vines 31 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: and creepers shut them in on both sides. They had 32 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: walked a long time when suddenly, turning a curve on 33 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: the pathway, they came upon a lake of black water, 34 00:02:54,919 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: so big and so deep that they were forced to stop. Well, Toto, 35 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: said Dorothy, looking at the lake. We must turn back, 36 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: I guess, for there is neither a bridge nor a 37 00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: boat to take us across the black water. Here's the 38 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 1: faery man, though, cried a tiny voice beside them, and 39 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: the girl gave a start and looked down at her feet, 40 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: where a man no taller than three inches sat at 41 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: the edge of the path with his legs dangling over 42 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: the lake. Oh, said Dorothy, I didn't see you before. 43 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: Toto growled fiercely and made his ear stand up straight. 44 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: But the little man did not seem in the least 45 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: afraid of the dog. He merely repeated, I'm the fery Man, 46 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: and it's my business to carry people across the lake. 47 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: Dorothy couldn't help feeling surprised, for she could have picked 48 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: the little man up with one hand, and the lake 49 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: was big and broad. Looking at the fairyman more closely, 50 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: she saw that he had small eyes, a big nose, 51 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: and a sharp chin. His hair was blue and his 52 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 1: clothes scarlet, and Dorothy noticed that every button on his 53 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 1: jacket was the head of some animal. The top button 54 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: was a bear's head, and the next button a wolf's head, 55 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: The next was a cat's head, and the next a 56 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: weasel's head, while the last button of all was the 57 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: head of a field monk's. When Dorothy looked into the 58 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 1: eyes of these animals heads, they all nodded and said 59 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: in a chorus. Don't believe all you hear, little girl. Silence, 60 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 1: said the Fairyman, slapping each and head in turn. Then 61 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 1: he turned to Dorothy and asked, do you wish to 62 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: cross over the lake? Wy I'd like to, she answered, hesitating, 63 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: But I can't see how you will manage to carry 64 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: us without any boat. If you can't see, you mustn't see. 65 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: Ha ha, he answered with a laugh. All you need 66 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: to do is shut your eyes, say the word, and over 67 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 1: you go. Dorothy wanted to get across in order that 68 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: she might continue her journey. All right, she said, closing 69 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: her eyes, I'm ready. Instantly she was seized in a 70 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 1: pair of strong arms, arms so big and powerful that 71 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:54,919 Speaker 1: she was startled and cried out in fear. Silence roared 72 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: a great voice, and the girl opened her eyes to 73 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: find that the tiny man had suddenly grown to a 74 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: giant and was holding both her and Toto in a 75 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:10,119 Speaker 1: tight embrace, while in one step, he spanned the lake 76 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: and reached the other shore. Dorothy became frightened then, especially 77 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: as the giant did not stop, but continued tramping in 78 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: great steps over the wooded hills, crushing bushes and trees 79 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 1: beneath his broad feet. She struggled to free herself, while 80 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: Toto whined and trembled beside her. For the little dog 81 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: was frightened too, Stop, screamed the girl. Let me down, 82 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,159 Speaker 1: but the giant paid no attention. Who are you and 83 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: where are you taking me? She continued, but the giant 84 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: said not a word. Close to Dorothy's ear, however, a 85 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: voice answered her, saying, this is the terrible crank Clink, 86 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 1: and he has you in his power. Dorothy managed to 87 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: twist her head around and found it was the second 88 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: button on the jacket the wolf's head, which had spoken 89 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: to her. Well, will Crinklind do with me, she asked, anxiously. 90 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: No one knows. You must wait and see, replied the wolf. 91 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 1: Some of his captives he whips, squeaked the weasel's heads. 92 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: Some he transforms into bugs and other things growled the 93 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: bed bear's head. Some he enchants so that they become 94 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: door knobs, sighed the cat's head. Oh, some he makes 95 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: into his slaves, and that is the most dreadful fate 96 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: of all, added the field mouse. As long as Crinklink exists, 97 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: we shall remain buttons. But as there are no more 98 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: button holes on his jacket, he will probably make you 99 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: a slave. Dorothy began to wish she had not met Crinklink. Meantime, 100 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: the giant took such big steps that he soon reached 101 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 1: the heart of the hills, where, perched upon the highest 102 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: peak stood a log castle. Before this castle, he paused 103 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: to set down Dorothy in Toto, for Crinklink at present 104 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: was too large to enter his own doorway. So he 105 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: made himself grow smaller until he was about the size 106 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: of an ordinary man. Then he said to Dorothy in stern, 107 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: commanding tones, enter girl. Dorothy obeyed and entered the castle 108 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 1: with Toto at her heels. She found the pace to 109 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: be nearly one big room. There was a table and 110 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: chair of ordinary size near the center, and at one 111 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: side a wee bed that seemed scarcely big enough for 112 00:08:52,280 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: a doll. Everywhere else were dishes, dishes, dishes. They were 113 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 1: all soiled, and were piled upon the floor, and in 114 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: all the corners, and upon every shelf. Evidently Crinklink had 115 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 1: not washed a dish for years, but had cast them 116 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 1: aside as he used them. Dorothy's captor sat down in 117 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 1: the chair and frowned at her. You are young and 118 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: strong and will make a good dish washer, said he. 119 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: Do you mean for me to wash all those dishes? 120 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 1: She asked, feeling both indignant and fearful for such a 121 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 1: task would take weeks to accomplish. That's just what I mean, 122 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: he retorted. I need clean dishes, for all I have 123 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: are soiled, and you're going to make em clean or else. 124 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:56,079 Speaker 1: So get to work and be careful not to break anything. 125 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: If you smash a dish, the penalty is one lash 126 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 1: h And here Crinklink displayed his terrible whip. Dorothy knew 127 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: how to wash dishes, but she remembered that often she 128 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: carelessly broke one. In this case, however, a good deal 129 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 1: depended on being careful, so she handled the dishes very carefully. 130 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: While she worked. Toto sat by the hearth and growled 131 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: low at Crinklink, and Crinklink sat in his chair and 132 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: growled at Dorothy. Because she moved so slowly, he expected 133 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 1: her to break a dish any minute. But as the 134 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: hours passed away and this did not happen, Crinklink began 135 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: to grow sleepy. It was tiring watching the girl wash dishes, 136 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: and often he glanced longingly at the tiny bed. Now 137 00:10:55,640 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: he began to yawn ooh, and he yawned and yawned, 138 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: until finally he said, I'm going to take a nap, 139 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: But the buttons on my jacket will be wide awake, 140 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: and whenever you break a dish, the crash will waken me. 141 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: As I am rather sleepy, I hope you won't interrupt 142 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 1: my nap by breaking anything. For a long time, then 143 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: Crinklink made himself grow smaller and smaller, until he was 144 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 1: three inches high and of a size to fit the 145 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 1: tiny bed. At once, he lay down and fell fast asleep. 146 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 1: Dorothy came close to the buttons and whispered, would you 147 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: really warn, Crinklink if I tried to escape, You can't escape, 148 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: growled the bear. Crinklink would become a giant and soon 149 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: overtake you. But maybe while he's sleeping, suggested the cat 150 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: in a soft voice. Oh, I couldn't do anything while 151 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: he was sleeping, even if it meant saving my life. 152 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: But Toto heard this conversation and thought he would do 153 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,839 Speaker 1: anything to help his mistress. Also, the little dog knew 154 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: this might be his only chance. In an instant, Toto 155 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: sprang upon the bed and was about to grasp the 156 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: sleeping Crinklink in his jaws when Dorothy heard a loud crash. 157 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 1: A heap of dishes fell from the table to the floor. 158 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: Then the girl saw Toto and the little man rolling 159 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: on the floor together like a fuzzy ball. And when 160 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: the ball stopped rolling, behold there was Toto wagging his 161 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: tail joyfully, and there sat the Little Wizard of Oz, 162 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:59,079 Speaker 1: laughing merrily at the expression of surprise on Dorothy's face. Yes, 163 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: my dear, it's me, said he and I have been 164 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 1: playing tricks on you for your own good. I wanted 165 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: to prove to you that it is really dangerous for 166 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 1: a little girl to wander alone in the fair country, 167 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: so I took the form of crinklink to teach you 168 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:20,440 Speaker 1: a lesson. There isn't any crinklink, to be sure, but 169 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: if there had been, you'd have been severely whipped for 170 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: breaking all those dishes. The wizard, now rose, took off 171 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 1: the coat with the button heads and spread it on 172 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: the floor wrong side up. At once there crept from 173 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 1: beneath it a bear, a wolf, a cat, a weasel, 174 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 1: and a field mouse, who all rushed from the room 175 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:51,080 Speaker 1: and escaped into the mountains. Come on, totoe, said Dorothy, 176 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,680 Speaker 1: Let's go back to the Emerald City. You've given me 177 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: a good scare. Wizard, she added, with dignity, and perhaps 178 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: I'll forgive you by and by. But just now I'm 179 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: mad to think how easily you fooled me.
