How does Dorothy cross the ditch in 'The Wonderful Wizard of Oz'?

Dorothy's clapping her heels together and saying, "There's no place like home' [in the original book, "Take me home to Aunt Em"], is the climax. For it's the final resolution of the original dilemma: what to do to get back home?

The Shakespearean climax is a high point that's midway through the story. In The Wizard of Oz, midway most likely is Dorothy's interview with the Wizard, and his instructions to bring back the broomstick of the Wicked Witch of the West. But the Shakespearean climax may be seen as actually occurring close to that point, but a bit later, when Dorothy melts the Wicked Witch of the West with a bucket of water.

With the guidance of owner/trainer Carl Spitz [August 26, 1894-September 15, 1976], she got an early start to an acting career that landed her roles in a total of 13 films. Her first acting job was in 1934, with Ready for Love. She next appeared, as Rags, opposite Shirley Jane Temple [b. April 23, 1928] in Bright Eyes. During the filming of The Wizard of Oz, one of the Wicked Witch of the West's guards stepped on her. She broke an ankle, and temporarily was replaced by another dog during her recuperation. With filming completed, in 1939, she accompanied the rest of the cast to the premiere at Grauman's Chinese Theater. Three years later, and what with the continued widespread acclaim of the film, she went through a name change, to Toto. She was buried in a pet burial area behind her owner/trainer's residence and kennel. The property subsequently was purchased, and everything razed, with the Ventura Freeway expansion in Los Angeles.

In the original book by author and Oz series originator Lyman Frank Baum [May 15, 1856-May 5, 1919], the wearer of the Golden Cap could command the Winged Monkeys three times. Dorothy Gale requested them to get herself, Toto, the Tin Woodman, the Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion to the Emerald City; to get herself and Toto back to Kansas; and to get herself, Toto, the Tin Woodman, the Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion past the Hill of the Hammer-Heads and safely into the Red Quadling Country of Glinda the Good Witch of the South. The only request that the Monkeys couldn't carry out was the wish to be back in Kansas. For the lands of Oz were surrounded by a desert that the Monkeys weren't allowed to cross. Once at the Red Castle, Dorothy gave the Golden Cap to Glinda. Glinda then called upon the Winged Monkeys to take the Tin Woodman, the Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion to their respective kingdoms of Winkieland, the Emerald City, and the Grand Old Forest. She then gave the Cap, and freedom, to the Monkeys.

"As for you, my fine friend, you're a victim of disorganized thinking. You are under the unfortunate delusion that simply because you run away from danger you have no courage. You're confusing courage with wisdom. Back where I come from, we have men who are called heroes. Once a year, they take their fortitude out of moth balls and parade it down the main street of the city and they have no more courage than you have.

You are now a member of the Legion of Courage."
