Sit back and rest yourself. I thought you\u003cbr\u003eliked it on the train.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"I do; but it's so long to sit still.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe little fellow who had asked the question turned to his golden-haired\u003cbr\u003esister, who sat in the seat with him.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Aren't you tired, Flossie?\" he asked.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Yes, Freddie, I am!\" exclaimed Flossie. \"And I want a drink of water.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Dinah will get it for you,\" said Mother Bobbsey. \"My! But you are a\u003cbr\u003ethirsty little girl.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Deed an' dat's whut she am!\" exclaimed a fat, good-natured looking\u003cbr\u003ecolored woman, smiling at the little girl. Dinah was the Bobbsey family\u003cbr\u003ecook. She had been with them so long that she used to say, and almost\u003cbr\u003edo, just what she pleased. \"Dis am de forty-sixteen time I'se done bin\u003cbr\u003edown to de end ob de car gittin' Miss Flossie a drink ob watah.

But\u003cbr\u003eI'll git you annuder cup ob watah, Flossie lamb!\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"And if you're going to upset, and fall down, Dinah, please do it where\u003cbr\u003ewe can see you,\" begged Freddie. \"Nothing has happened since we got on\u003cbr\u003ethis train. Do upset, Dinah!\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Yes, I want to see it, too,\" added Flossie. \"Here, Freddie, you can\u003cbr\u003ehave my place at the window, and I'll take yours on the outside. Then I\u003cbr\u003ecan see Dinah better when the car upsets her.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"No, I want to sit here myself, Flossie. You wanted the window side, and\u003cbr\u003enow you must stay there.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"No, I don't want to. I want to see Dinah upset in the aisle. Mamma,\u003cbr\u003emake Freddie let me sit where I can see Dinah fall.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Well, ob all t'ings!\" gasped the fat, colored cook. \"If you chilluns\u003cbr\u003et'ink dat I'se gwine t' upsot mahse'f so yo' kin see suffin t' laugh at,\u003cbr\u003eden all I'se got t' say is I ain't gwine t' do it! No, sah! Not fo' one\u003cbr\u003eminute!\" And Dinah sat up very straight in her seat.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Children, be nice now,\" begged Mother Bobbsey. \"I know you are tired\u003cbr\u003ewith the long ride, but you'll soon hear the brakeman call out\u003cbr\u003e'Lakeport'; and then we'll be home.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"I wish I were home now,\" said Freddie. \"I want to get my dog Snap out\u003cbr\u003eof the baggage car, and have some fun with him. I guess he's lonesome\u003cbr\u003efor me.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"And he's lonesome for me, too!\" cried Flossie. \"He's as much my dog as\u003cbr\u003ehe is yours, Freddie Bobbsey. Isn't he, Mother?\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Yes, dear, of course. I don't know what's the matter with you two\u003cbr\u003echildren. You never used to dispute this way.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"I guess the long train ride is tiring them,\" said Papa Bobbsey, looking\u003cbr\u003eup from the paper he was reading.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Anyhow, half of Snoop, our black cat, is mine then,\" said Freddie.\u003cbr\u003e\"Isn't she, Mother?\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Yes. And now please don't talk like that any more. Look out of the\u003cbr\u003ewindow and watch the trees shoot past.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Oh, I'm going to see Snoop!\" exclaimed Flossie, suddenly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"So'm I,\" added Freddie. And in a moment the two children were bending\u003cbr\u003eover a basket which was in the seat with Dinah. In the basket was Snoop,\u003cbr\u003ethe big black cat. She always traveled that way with the Bobbseys. And\u003cbr\u003eshe seemed very comfortable, for she was curled up on the blanket in the\u003cbr\u003ebottom of the basket. Snoop opened her eyes as Freddie and Flossie put\u003cbr\u003etheir fingers through cracks and stroked her as well as they could.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"I wish Snap was in here with us,\" said Freddie, after a bit. \"I hope he\u003cbr\u003egets a drink of water.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Oh, I want a drink of water!\" exclaimed Flossie, suddenly.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47079803027696,"sku":"2940013945128","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013945128_p0.jpg?v=1763597680","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013945128","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
