Example Question: What is one conflict Dorothy faces in The Wizard of Oz? Support your response with evidence from the selection. In The Wizard of Oz, one conflict Dorothy faces is overcoming her fear. As she “follows the yellow brick road,” she’s “trembling like a leaf” before confronting the evil Wicked Witch of the West and the powerful Wizard. Dorothy’s determination in seeking out both Wizard and Witch is proof that she willingly encounters terrors to achieve her goal of getting back home.
