El Maravilloso Mago de Oz
Capítulo 17, Página 2
“How
can
I
cross
the
desert?”
she
inquired.
“Well,
I’ll
tell
you
what
I
think,”
said
the
little
man.
“You
see,
when
I
came
to
this
country
it
was
in
a
balloon.
You
also
came
through
the
air,
being
carried
by
a
cyclone.
So
I
believe
the
best
way
to
get
across
the
desert
will
be
through
the
air.
Now,
it
is
quite
beyond
my
powers
to
make
a
cyclone;
but
I’ve
been
thinking
the
matter
over,
and
I
believe
I
can
make
a
balloon.”
“How?”
asked
Dorothy.
“A
balloon,”
said
Oz,
“is
made
of
silk,
which
is
coated
with
glue
to
keep
the
gas
in
it.
I
have
plenty
of
silk
in
the
Palace,
so
it
will
be
no
trouble
to
make
the
balloon.
But
in
all
this
country
there
is
no
gas
to
fill
the
balloon
with,
to
make
it
float.”
“If
it
won’t
float,”
remarked
Dorothy,
“it
will
be
of
no
use
to
us.”
“True,”
answered
Oz.
“But
there
is
another
way
to
make
it
float,
which
is
to
fill
it
with
hot
air.
Hot
air
isn’t
as
good
as
gas,
for
if
the
air
should
get
cold
the
balloon
would
come
down
in
the
desert,
and
we
should
be
lost.”
