1. The story is set in a land far away with two best friends named Gay Left and Kai, who lived in neighboring houses. They planted a rose in their respective gardens to show their love. The roses were meant to grow along with them.
2. As autumn turned into winter, the city was covered in snow. Gay's favorite pastime was listening to fairy tales with his grandmother.
3. Gerda, Gay's grandmother, shared a story about a kingdom covered in ice and snow, where the Snow Queen lived alone in an ice castle made solely by her own magic. The Snow Queen was beautiful and pure as ice, but she was also evil.
4. The Snow Queen had a magical ice mirror through which she could observe everything happening in the world.
5. One day, Gerda saw the Snow Queen looking at them from the window. The Snow Queen's ice sparks pricked Kai's eyes, causing him to transform into someone else.
6. Kai's behavior became rude and strange after the transformation. Gerda decided to find him and went out looking for him.
7. Gerda reached the bank of a river but couldn't find anyone to ask about Kai. She asked the river but didn't receive any answer. A seagull then approached her and told her to give a gift to the river to get an answer.
8. The flower lady of the secret garden helped Gerda by telling her a lie about Kai. Gerda remembered everything when she saw the roses in the lady's hat.
9. Gerda followed the flying body towards the sea of ice, where she found a pirate ship from long ago. She followed the ship and headed to the Snow Queen's castle.
10. The Snow Queen was trying to make Kai forget all his memories. Gerda promised to catch the Snow Queen so she could save Kai.
11. Gerda arrived at the Snow Queen's castle and saw Kai making an ice sculpture. The Snow Queen turned back into her former self, Lilac, after Gerda held her magic mirror against the curse of ice.
12. The Snow Queen's castle began to shake, and Dorothy, a little girl living on a farm with her uncles, was swept away by a tornado.
13. Dorothy woke up in a strange land filled with fields of flowers. She met a little lady in a white dress who was the good witch of the north. The witch gave Dorothy magic silver slippers and told her to follow the yellow brick road to the city of emeralds.
14. Along the way, Dorothy met a scarecrow, a tin man, and a lion. They all decided to go to the city of emeralds to see the wizard of Oz.
15. When they arrived at the gates of the emerald city, they were told to wear giant glasses to avoid being blinded by the bright green lights.
16. Inside the castle, Dorothy saw a large head hanging from the ceiling above the throne. The head belonged to the wizard of Oz, who asked Dorothy about the silver slippers and the wicked witch of the west.
17. The wizard of Oz helped Dorothy and her friends defeat the wicked witch of the west. They returned to the emerald city to announce their victory.
