Welcome to Litsy!

Peter Guzzardi spent decades as an editor working with some of the wisest writers of our time�from Stephen Hawking and Deepak Chopra to Carol Burnett and Douglas Adams�yet he couldn�t shake the sense that everything he�d learned from working with them felt oddly familiar. One day, he had an epiphany: All that wisdom had its roots in a film he�d watched as a child�The Wizard of Oz. In Emeralds of Oz, Guzzardi invites us to join him on a journey through the classic film, unearthing gems of wisdom large and small about longing, joy, compassion, fear, power, and having faith in ourselves. He also creates a practical Oz-based tool that we can apply to obstacles in our own lives. Now, like Dorothy, we can activate the magical power we�ve possessed all along. Written with the grace and insight of All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten, Emeralds of Oz is an instant classic, sure to inspire a fresh perspective on this legendary movie�and on our own lives.
