What does Dorothy see in the tornado in 'The Wizard of Oz'?

Answer 1

Almira Gulch and the Wicked Witch of the East are what Dorothy sees up in the tornado in "The Wizard of Oz."

Specifically, this is an incident in the original 1900 book edition but not in the beloved 1939 film version of "The Wizard of Oz." Dorothy Gale and her pet dog Toto look outside the window while the family farmhouse is being carried away from Kansas by the cyclone. Dorothy sees first Almira Gulch on a bicycle along a Kansas road and then the Wicked Witch of the East on a broomstick.
