Summary "Dorothy Dale in the City" by Margaret Penrose is a novel written in the early 20th century. This story is part of the popular Dorothy Dale series and focuses on the titular character, Dorothy Dale, as she navigates life, friendships, and adventures both at school and in the city. The narrative appears to revolve around themes of camaraderie, youthful mischief, and the excitement of new experiences, especially during the festive season of Christmas. At the start of the story, we find Dorothy and her friends at Glenwood Hall preparing to leave for the Christmas holiday. Amid the chaos of packing, Dorothy reflects on her feelings about returning home and the differences between going home and leaving it. The girls indulge in playful antics, such as hiding a feather bed, which leads to a series of humorous misunderstandings. As she embarks on her journey home, Dorothy's anticipation of Christmas is heightened by her interactions with her friends, setting the stage for the delightful adventures that await during the holiday season.
