The story revolves around Dotty Dimple, a spirited little girl, as she navigates her adventures between home and the experiences she encounters while visiting friends.

The opening
of the book introduces Dotty Dimple and her cousin Katie as they prepare for a journey to Indianapolis, where they will visit the Blind Asylum. The narrative captures the essence of their youthful exuberance and naivety, as they share playful banter and express their excitement about traveling in the train. As they arrive at the asylum, Dotty is struck by the sight of the blind children and is filled with curiosity and compassion.
