Chapter 22 ~ The Country of the Quadlings
The travelers come to a large hill. The Scarecrowstarts to cross first. He then hears a voice telling him that he is not allowed to cross. A strange creature appears. He is short and stout with no arms; however, his head can shoot out. As quick as lightning, the Scarecrow is knocked down. Hundreds of these creatures, known as Hammer-Heads, appear laughing at the Scarecrow’s fall.
The Lion becomes angry and dashes up the hill. He too is knocked down. The Tin Woodman suggests a call to the Winged Monkeys is needed. They come and fly the group into the country of the Quadlings.
After a stop by a farm for a meal, the group reaches the Castle of Glinda and are admitted.
