They suggest she wear the silver shoes that belonged to the Wicked Witch, which are now all that remain of her, her legs having vanished and – beneath the house – probably the rest of her too. They tell her to stick to the road paved with yellow brick which will guide her there.

They tell her she will have to undertake a long journey to the City of Emeralds in the centre of the country, there to meet with Oz, the Great Wizard, who will be able to help her. Dorothy is aghast at what has happened, but the Munchkins are delighted.ĭorothy tells the Munchkins that she is anxious to get home to her aunt and uncle. They then thank her for killing the Wicked Witch of the East and point to where Dorothy’s house has landed on her. They introduce themselves as Munchkins and welcome her to the Land of Oz. She is in the midst of a beautiful country, surrounded by lush green grass, banks of gorgeous flowers, fruit-bearing trees and even a little brook.ĭorothy notices a group of ‘people’ coming toward her, older than her, but no bigger, and all wearing little round hats that rose to a point above their heads and had little bells around the brims. Cautiously, she steps out of the house and looks around her. Dorothy crawls to her bed and eventually falls asleep.ĭorothy is woken by the jolt of the house landing on the ground. Dorothy goes to retrieve him and is rushing back to the hole to join Aunt Em when the house is suddenly lifted from the ground by the mighty cyclone, carrying Dorothy and Toto high into the sky and off into the distance. But Toto is frightened and hides under the bed.

This particular day, when the grass begins to sway, Dorothy, along with her beloved dog Toto, is ordered into the cyclone cellar by Aunt Em whilst Uncle Henry rushes to the sheds to look after the cows and horses. Beneath the house is a small hole called a cyclone cellar, where they go when one of the many violent cyclones comes tearing through the plains. Their house is very small, just one room, which serves as kitchen, living room and bedroom. Dorothy lives in the midst of the great Kansas prairies in the United States of America with her Uncle Henry and her Aunt Em.
