the Wonderful Wizard of Oz page 1 by ric gustafson
Dorothy lived in a great Kansas prairie. She lived with Uncle Henry who was a farmer. Aunt Em was the farmer's wife. Toto was Dorothy's dog. Their house was small with only four walls, a floor and a roof. The only cellar was a cyclone cellar which was a small hole dug in the ground. It was reached by a ladder.
One day, Uncle Henry was sitting on the doorstep. Dorothy was standing in the doorway with Toto in her arms. Just then, Uncle Henry stood up. He noticed the wind and the dark sky.
" Em". He stared at her with scared eyes. " There's a cyclone coming".
" Dorothy". Em began to scream. " Run for the cellar".
Toto jumped out of Dorothy's arms and ran into her bedroom.
" Toto". Dorothy ran into the bedroom after him.
All of a sudden, a mighty wind shook the house.
Dorothy slipped and fell onto the floor.
Toto jumped into her arms. " There you are".
The house began to slowly rise into the air. She felt like they were up in a baloon.
Tired and holding Toto, Dorothy fell asleep.
