The Marvelous Land of Oz | Chapter 3: The Flight of the Fugitives

The Marvelous Land of Oz by L. Frank Baum — Chapter 3: The Flight of the Fugitives

Tip has had enough of living with Mombi, and he decides that becoming a marble statue is a fate he will not accept. Under cover of night he slips out of the witch's cottage with bread, cheese, and a mysterious pepper-box, then makes a detour back to the cow-stable to rescue his pumpkin-headed companion, Jack.

Once the two are on the road, the sun rising behind them, Tip tries to explain the strange, colored lands of Oz to a very confused Jack. Their talk turns to the Emerald City, a Tin Woodman, and a Scarecrow who has become king, and it leaves Jack newly convinced that he is Tip's son.
