Behind the illuminated capital "A," the horizon of the Kansas prairie, with farmhouses in the distance. In the lower left hand corner, Dorothy runs, with the Silver Shoes falling from her feet. ]

Aunt Em had just come out of the house to water the cabbages when she looked up and saw Dorothy running toward her.

"My darling child!" she cried, folding the little girl in her arms and covering her face with kisses. "Where in the world did you come from?"

"From the Land of Oz," said Dorothy gravely. "And here is Toto, too. And oh, Aunt Em! I'm so glad to be at home again!"
