In Maggie Barlow's world, reality is overrated. So what if her singing career has hit a sour note or she's no longer the ingénue that she used to be? So what if she drinks and smokes a bit too much or likes to chat with a fairy godperson who appears to her from time to time? She's the queen of denial and an actress to boot—she can just take on the role of someone she likes better than her sorry self. Regrettably, that role is currently Dorothy in the Little Britches Theater Company's production of The Wizard of Oz. Dorothy on the Rocks is the story of a funny, lovable, totally self-destructive woman who, after a night of one-drink-too-many, wakes up with a strange man in her bed: confident, handsome, sexy, twenty-eight-year-old Jack. What happens next is what makes Barbara Suter's coming-of-middle-age tale so much fun. For when the make-believe is finally stripped away, our hurt, lonely, and very afraid heroine finally takes center stage and finds herself starring in a totally improbable love story. It just might be the role of a lifetime.

In the novel, Dorothy is young farm girl living with her Aunt Em and Uncle Henry on the Kansas prairie. Their one room home has a storm shelter underground and Dorothy's bed is in the corner. Dorothy's best friend and playmate is her loyal dog Toto. When a tornado strikes, Aunt Em heads yells for Dorothy to get into the storm shelter, but she delays because her beloved Toto is under her bed. The entire house is lifted into the air and carried for miles by the cyclone with Dorothy and Toto inside. The frightened and exhausted Dorothy falls asleep. Dorothy wakes up in the beautiful, colorful Munchkin Territory in the Land of Oz. A group of three very short men approach her. They are joined by The Witch of the North who thanks Dorothy for killing the Wicked Witch of the East, the evil ruler of the Munchkins. Unbeknownst to Dorothy, her house had landed on the Wicked Witch of the East and killed her. The legs of the Wicked Witch of the East stick out from under the house, shod in silver shoes. The Witch of the North presents the shoes to Dorothy. Dorothy is very confused and does not understand where she is. She does not remember killing anyone. And she believes that all witches are evil. The Witch of the North explains that there are good witches and evil witches. The Witches of the North and South are good, while those of the East and West are evil. She also mentions a Great Wizard named Oz. Dorothy asks the Witch of the North and the munchkins how to get home to Kansas. The Witch of the North tells her to follow the yellow brick road to Oz, as the Great Wizard might know what to do. She kisses Dorothy to grant hersafe passage for her journey to Oz. Before setting off on her journey, Dorothy changes into a blue gingham dress and the silver slippers. On her journey, Dorothy sees a Scarecrow in a field, who gives her a friendly wink. After her initial surprise, she helps the Scarecrow off his pole and introduces herself and explains where she is going. The Scarecrow asks to join Dorothy on her journey to Oz so that he can ask the wizard for a brain, instead of a head of straw. Dorothy, Toto, and the Scarecrow continue on their journey to Oz together. While drinking and bathing in a forest in a stream, a rusted Tin Woodman appears. The Tin Woodman is thrilled when Dorothy oils his joints and he can finally move again. After hearing that they are going to Oz, the Tin Woodman asks if he can join them to ask the Wizard of Oz for a heart. Joined now by the Tin Woodman, the group walks deeper into the frightening woods. A large lion jumps out and is about to attack Toto. Dorothy saves Toto by slapping the lion on his nose and yelling at him not to bite her dog. The Cowardly Lion apologizes and explains that to hide his cowardice he roars to scare everyone. He asks to join them on their journey to Oz to ask the wizard for courage. Dorothy, Toto and their three companions finally reach Oz and are taken to see the wizard one by one. Dorothy explains to the wizard how she got the silver shoes and the mark on her head and asks for help to get home to Kansas. Oz says he will only grant their wishes if they kill the Wicked Witch of the West. They travel to the land of the Winkies to kill the witch. The Wicked Witch attacks Dorothy and her friends with wolves and crows, which they are able to fight off. The witch uses a Golden Cap to send winged monkeys to enslave the Lion, drop the Tin Woodman on sharp rocks and break apart the Scarecrow. Dorothy is captured and forced to work in the witch's kitchen. The witch wants Dorothy's powerful silver shoes, but cannot figure out how to take them from her. The witch trips Dorothy with an invisible bar, which causes a shoe to fall off. Angered, Dorothy throws a bucket of water on the witch which causes the witch to melt away. Dorothy reunites with her friends and heads back to Oz to ask the Wizard to fulfill his end of their ba...

Dorothy Lee is best remembered for her screen appearances with the popular comedy team of Bert Wheeler and Robert Woolsey. She went from being a struggling vaudeville performer to the female vocalist in one of the most successful bands in the country to a star in the new-fangled "talking pictures" all within the span of a few short years. During the Great Depression, she lived a fairy-tale existence, rubbing shoulders with Hollywood luminaries and earning an income that most people could only dream of. She retired and balanced domestic life with charity work. And she saw, to her amazement, a revived interest in the movie career she had written off long ago. Based on years of conversations between the authors and Dorothy Lee, this book is an informative biography filled with revealing insights on navigating the studio system during Hollywood's Golden Age and the ephemeral nature of fame.

Soil science is perhaps one of the oldest practical sciences, having been of concern to man probably from the time he progressed from a strictly preda tory life to one in which agriculture became important. In view of the anti quity of concern with the subject, it is perhaps surprising that it can be approached from a fresh viewpoint, as is done in this book. Because soil science is an applied science, it is not surprising that the approach is usually descriptive, rather than imaginative. For agriculturalists and other land users, perhaps the most important part of soil science is the description of soils and the capacities of such soils to maintain crops, and this is reflected by the fact that soil science is usually treated ima highly descriptive manner, with soil classification being one of the main efforts. The treatment of the subject from a geological point of view, with considerable emphasis on the evolution of soils and the reasons governing their composition and form, makes this a highly readable book. Books on soil science are timely, with present-day concern with such major problems as the pollution of our environment and the possibility of overreaching our capacity for producing food for an expanding population.

In book four of the adventures in Oz books, we find Dorothy Gale back home in Kansas. One day, she and her pet dog Toto meet the Shaggy Man who comes walking past the Gale farm. He is a friendly, yet slightly senile hobo with an optimistic, care free attitude. He politely asks Dorothy for directions to Butterfield, which is the nearest town on the prairie. The girl agrees to show him the way, bringing her dog with her. Further on, the road splits into seven paths. They take the seventh one and soon find themselves lost in what appears to be a strange land. The trio meets Button-Bright, a cute and wealthy little boy in a sailor's outfit who is always getting lost. Later, the companions encounter Polychrome, the beautiful and ethereal Daughter of the Rainbow who is stranded on earth. On their journey, the companions eventually come to the peculiar town of Foxville, where anthropomorphic foxes live. With prompting from King Dox of Foxville. Further on they come to Dunkiton and meet King Kik-a-Bray. Later they meet the Musicker, who produces music from his breath, and end up fighting off the Scoodlers, who have a peculiar method of fighting. They manage to cross the Deadly Desert completely surrounding Oz. Upon reaching Oz, Dorothy and her companions are warmly welcomed by old friends and celebrate Dorothy’s return with a great banquet. But did it really happen or was it another dream…….?

Dorothy Stillman was born in 1907 in Oklahoma and died at the age of 89 in 1996. Although she had a deprived and neglectful childhood, her native intelligence, courage, and creativity lead to an adventuresome and unconventional life. On her own at age fifteen she worked as a magazine saleswoman, a telephone operator, a chorus girl, a “Rosie the Riveter”, a dance instructor, a door-to-door saleswoman, an entrepreneur, a uranium prospector, and a gemstone jewelry designer/producer. She raised three successful children. Throughout her life, she always cared about and for others and lived the “Golden Rule.” In this memoir she recounts in humorous detail her many adventures and the characters she meets along the way while traveling from coast-to-coast in the pursuit of money to support her family and of experiences to enrich her soul.
