Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG- Mamma, how much longer have we got to ride? asked Nan Bobbsey, turning in her seat in the railroad car, to look at her parents, who sat behind her."Are you getting tired?" asked Nan's brother Bert. "If you are I'll sit next to the window, and watch the tele-graph poles and trees go by. Maybe that's what tires you, Nan," he added, and his father smiled, for he saw that Bert had two thoughts for himself, and one for his sister."No, I'm not tired of the scenery," answered the brown-haired and brown-eyed girl, "but you may sit next the window, Bert, if you like."Download Description

Well, Ruth, aren't you almost ready?"Just a moment, Alice. I can't seem to get my collar fastened in the back. I wish I'd used the old-fashioned hooks and eyes instead of those new snaps.""Oh, I think those snaps are just adorable!""Oh, Alice DeVere! Using such an extreme expression!""What expression, Ruth?""'Adorable!' You sometimes accuse me of using slang, and there you go-""'Adorable' isn't slang," retorted Alice."Oh, isn't it though? Since when?""There you go yourself! You're as bad as I am.""Well, it must be associating with you, then," sighed Ruth. ... Read more

Bobbsey Twins revive happy memories for a Grandmother
When I was about 8 or 9, I read all the Bobbsey Twin Books that were available.Of course that was in 1936.Now that I have a 9 year old Grandaughter, I thought she would enjoy them too. And she does. I was really surprised to see how many more books have been written about the Bobbsey Twins.The service was very prompt and she loves the book.jh in CA

The Bobbsey Twins - A family tradition
My mother ordered the collection of The Bobbsey Twins for me when I was a little girl. I would forward to the new book for the month. I enjoyed many hours of pure pleasure reading those books. My mother had read them when she was a little girl. I was ecstatic to find the series at Amazon.com. I have purchased them all so that I can share them with my niece. I wish I had found them when my sons were growing up. My mother mentioned the books at Christmas when we were talking about how my niece reads everything she can put her hands on. So I searched for the collection and found it at amazon.com.

The Lamb on Wheels was so frightened when the dog took her up in his mouth that she did not know what to do. If she could, she would have rolled away as fast as a toy railroad train, such a train as Arnold and Dick played with. But the dog had the Lamb in his mouth before she knew what was happening. ...
