Final answer:

Without a direct quote from the text of 'The Wizard of Oz' pertaining to Glinda's response to Dorothy's plea for her dog, it's difficult to provide the exact answer from the options given. However, Glinda's role as a guide hints that her response would empower Dorothy to take action herself rather than directly intervening.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking about Glinda's response to Dorothy's plea in The Wizard of Oz, specifically regarding Dorothy getting her dog back. The correct response from Glinda is not directly quoted in any of the provided excerpts, thus we do not have a clear text-based answer to choose from the given options (A to D). However, referencing the story, Glinda's typical role is one of guidance rather than imposition, indicating that she would not have power over Dorothy's decisions or possessions such as her dog.As it relates to the greater narrative, Dorothy's encounters and development throughout The Wizard of Oz serve as a metaphor for personal growth, mirrored in the transformation of her character from someone initially powerless to a figure of courage and determination. This transformation can be aligned with the provided themes of encountering adversity and finding strength, though it does not answer the multiple-choice question directly.The main answer to the specific question about Glinda's response, given the limitations of the information provided, would likely relate to Glinda's empowerment of Dorothy, suggesting that the answer might be more aligned with Dorothy finding the strength and means within herself, rather than Glinda granting a direct request.
