Also about a certain broken window; what happened
when the twins went coasting, how they had a good time in an ice boat,
and how they did many other things.
Snoop, the fat, black kitten, played a part in the story also. The
Bobbsey twins were very fond of Snoop, and had kept him so many years
that I suppose he ought to be called cat, instead of a kitten, now.
After the first winter's fun, told of in the book that began an account
of the doings of the Bobbseys, the twins and their parents went to the
home of Uncle Daniel Bobbsey, and his wife, Aunt Sarah, in Meadow Brook.
In the book called "The Bobbsey Twins in the Country," I wrote down many
of the things that happened during the summer.
If they had fun going off to the country, taking Snoop with them, of
course, they had many more good times on arriving at the farm. There
was a picnic, jolly times in the woods, a Fourth of July celebration,
and though a midnight scare alarmed them for a time, still they did not
mind that.
But, though the twins liked the country very much, they soon had a
chance to see something of the ocean, and in the third book of the
series, called "The Bobbsey Twins at the Seashore," my readers will find
out what happened there.
There was fun on the sand, and more fun in the water, and once the
little ones got lost on an island. A great storm came up, and a ship
was wrecked, and this gave the twins a chance to see the life savers,
those brave men who risk their lives to help others.
