Information about getting Dorothy, her pet dog Toto and their three friends where they need to go in the book and information about wicked witches, magic shoes, and getting back home in the movie are what Glinda the Good says to Dorothy in "The Wizard of Oz."
Specifically, Dorothy Gale has just one interaction with Glinda in the original 1900 book edition of "The Wizard of Oz." It is in the next to the last chapter, 23, when "The Good Witch Grants Dorothy's Wish." The Lion, the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman learn that they respectively will be carried by the Winged Monkeys to the Great Forest beyond the Hammer-Head Country, the Emerald City, and the Yellow West Country of the Winkies. Dorothy learns that all she has to do is knock the heels of the magic shoes together three times, give the destination and find herself there in the wink of an eye.
In contrast, in the beloved 1939 film version, Dorothy has two interactions with Glinda. In the first, she learns that bad witches are always ugly, that the magic shoes of the Wicked Witch of the East must not leave her feet because of their great powers, that Oz is not safe because of the Wicked Witch of the West's hatred and powers and that the Wizard can be accessed by broom sticking to the Emerald City or walking down the Yellow Brick Road. In the second interaction, at the end of Dorothy's stay, Glinda tells Dorothy to close her eyes, make the heels of the magic shoes tap together three times and say "There is no place like home."
That he is better off for knowing Dorothy in the book and that what Dorothy learns from her experience is obvious in the movie are the last things that the Scarecrow says to Dorothy in "The Wizard of Oz."
Specifically, Glinda the Good Witch of the South states in the book that Dorothy Gale has the power to get back to Kansas just by wearing the magical silver slippers of the Wicked Witch of the East. The Scarecrow therefore observes that he has brains (and a kingdom instead of a cornfield) because of Dorothy's ignorance of that power from her very first day in Oz. The exact words are "But then I should not have had my wonderful brains! I might have passed my whole life in the farmer's cornfield."
Glinda makes about the same comment in the movie, but declares that Dorothy has a lesson to learn from her experiences. Dorothy answers that you cannot lose what you already have. The Scarecrow adds that the lesson is so obvious that he should have thought of it without Glinda and Dorothy engaging in their question and answer session: "But that's so easy! I should have thought of it for you."
