Then he told Dorothy his great trouble: his head was full of straw, so he believed he had no brain. “I want to go tothe Emerald City," Dorothy said. "The Wizard may help me get home.” “Then I will go with you,” said the Scarecrow. “Perhaps he can give me a brain.” As they walked, Dorothy noticed something strange. The Scarecrow said he was foolish, but he asked careful questions. When the road became rough, he thought of a safer way across.
