what did the cowardly lion want in the wizard of oz?
courage
the cowardly lion makes his first appearance in the book "the wonderful wizard of oz". he is the last of the companions dorothy befriends on her way to the emerald city where he ambushes her, toto, scarecrow, and tin woodman. when he tries to bite toto, dorothy slaps him. she calls the lion a coward and the lion admits that he is. the cowardly lion joins her so that he can ask the wizard for courage, ashamed that he is not brave enough to play his cultural role of the king of the beasts. despite outward evidence that he is unreasonably fearful, the cowardly lion displays great bravery along the way. during the journey, he leaps across a chasm on the road of yellow brick multiple times, each time with a companion on his back, and then leaps back to get the next one. when they come into another, wider chasm, the cowardly lion holds off two kalidahs while the tin woodman cuts a tall tree to cross it. in spite of his fears, he still goes off to hunt for his food, and he even offers to kill a deer for dorothy to eat, but the idea makes her uncomfortable.
