Dorothy on a Ranch

"Dorothy on a Ranch" by Evelyn Raymond is a charming tale from the early 1900s that follows Dorothy on an exciting trip to a Colorado ranch with her pals, Alfaretta and Leslie, where they are traveling on a private train car. The story kicks off with Dorothy feeling both excited and a little sad about leaving her Aunt Betty. The girls joke around while packing, but soon they realize that a summer at the ranch—filled with cowboys, vast landscapes, and new experiences—awaits them, as well as navigating friendships and handling the mix of excitement and challenges that come with travel. Dorothy's feelings about her newfound friends and the summer ahead set the tone for an adventure where she will learn a lot about herself.
