Best Answer

That it deals with enchantments, little people, magic and wonderful endings and that it appeals to adults and childrenare reasons why "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" is a fairy tale.

Specifically, a fairy tale does not have to have a fairy in it. The royal histories of Oz series has fairies, whose Queen Lurleen makes Oz possible. They just do not show up in the first book. Otherwise, author and Oz series originator Lyman Frank Baum (May 15, 1856 - May 6, 1919) describes his story the first American fairy tale for good reason. The book contains such fairy tale elements as the enchantment of the Tin Woodman, the little people in Munckinland, the magic of the witches, and the unusually happy ending in which the five friends each receives what he most desires. Additionally, the book appeals to children and the young at heart.
