Dorothy lived in the midst of the great Kansas prairies, with Uncle Henry, who was a farmers and Aunt Em, who was the farmer's wife. Their house was small, for the lumber to build it had to be carried by wagon many miles.

Uncle Henry and Aunt Em had a big bed in one corner, and Dorothy a little bed in another corner.

It was reached by a trap-door in the middle of the floor, from which a ladder led down into the small, dark hole.
