A memorable short story narrated by Glenn Hascall.

In the Land of Oz, young Tip runs away from his guardian, the witch Mombi, taking with him Jack Pumpkinhead and the wooden Saw-Horse, and flees to the Emerald City, where he learns the incredible secret of his past.

We often condemn what we don't understand. In this short tale from L. Frank Baum (of The Wizard of Oz fame), we see members of high society suddenly engaging in activities they wouldn't normally have anything to do with. There was a reason for their change, but for those who didn't know the reason, the men's actions seemed disgraceful. A tale that seems to encourage the old adage "walk a mile in another man's shoes."

Santa Claus lives in the Laughing Valley, where stands the big, rambling castle in which his toys are manufactured. His workmen, selected from the ryls, knooks, pixies and fairies, live with him, and everyone is as busy as can be from one year's end to another.
