Dorothy currently took Toto up solemnly in her arms, and having said one last goodbye she slapped the heels of her shoes together 3 times, claiming:

The Silver Footwear took yet three steps, and after that she quit so all of a sudden that

she rolled over upon the lawn several times before she knew where she was.

In detail, however, she sat up and looked regarding her.

" Great gracious!" she cried.

" From the Land of Oz," stated Dorothy seriously. "As well as here is Toto, as well. And also oh, Auntie Em! I'm so delighted to be in the house again!"
