I want to carry mine all the way!\" cried\u003cbr\u003elittle fat Freddie Bobbsey, thinking perhaps his bigger brother might\u003cbr\u003ewant to take, too, his bundle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"All right, you can carry your own, Freddie,\" said Bert, pleasantly.\u003cbr\u003e\"But it's pretty heavy for you.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"It--it isn't very heavy,\" panted Freddie, as he struggled on with his\u003cbr\u003ebundle, his short fat legs fairly \"twinkling\" to and fro as he came up\u003cbr\u003ethe walk. \"It's got some cookies in, too, my bundle has; and Flossie\u003cbr\u003eand I are going to eat 'em when we get on the porch.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Oh, so that's the reason you didn't want Bert to take your package,\u003cbr\u003eis it?\" asked Mrs. Bobbsey, with a smile, as she patted the little fat\u003cbr\u003echap on the head.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Oh, well, I'll give Bert a cookie if he wants one,\" said Freddie,\u003cbr\u003egenerously, \"but I'm strong enough to carry my own bundle all the way;\u003cbr\u003earen't I, Dinah?\" and he appealed to a fat, good-natured looking\u003cbr\u003ecolored woman, who was waddling along, carrying a number of packages.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Dat's what yo' is, honey lamb! Dat's what yo' is!\" Dinah exclaimed.\u003cbr\u003e\"An' ef I could see dat man ob mine, Sam Johnson, I'd make him take\u003cbr\u003esome ob dese yeah t'ings.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Dinah spoke there came from around the corner of the house a tall,\u003cbr\u003eslim colored man, who as soon as he saw the party of returning\u003cbr\u003etravelers, ran forward to help them carry their luggage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Well, it's about time dat yo' come t' help us, Sam Johnson!\"\u003cbr\u003eexclaimed his wife. \"It's about time!\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Didn't know yo' all was a-comin', Dinah! Didn't know yo' all would\u003cbr\u003eget heah so soon, 'deed I didn't!\" Sam exclaimed, with a laugh, that\u003cbr\u003eshowed his white teeth in strange contrast to his black face.\u003cbr\u003e\"Freddie, shall I take yo' package? Flossie, let me reliebe yo',\u003cbr\u003elittle Missie!\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"No, Sam, thank you!\" answered the little girl, who was just about the\u003cbr\u003esize and build of Freddie. \"I have only Snoop, our cat, and I can\u003cbr\u003ecarry him easily enough. You help Dinah!\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"'Deed an' he had better help me!\" exclaimed the colored cook.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSam took all the packages he could carry, and hurried with them to the\u003cbr\u003estoop. But he had not gone very far before something happened.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom behind him rushed a big dog, barking and leaping about, glad,\u003cbr\u003eprobably, to be home again from part of the summer vacation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Look out, Sam!\" called Bert Bobbsey, who was carrying the valise his\u003cbr\u003emother had had. \"Look out!\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"What's de mattah? Am I droppin' suffin?\" asked Sam, trying to turn\u003cbr\u003eabout and look at all the bundles and packages he had in his arms and\u003cbr\u003ehands.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"It's Snap!\" cried Nan, who was sitting comfortably on the shady\u003cbr\u003eporch. \"Look out for him, Sam.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Snap! Behave yourself!\" ordered little fat Flossie, as she set down a\u003cbr\u003ewooden cage containing a black cat. \"Be good, Snap!\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Here, Snap! Snap! Come here!\" called Freddie.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSnap, the big dog, was too excited just then to mind. With another\u003cbr\u003eloud, joyous bark he rushed up behind Sam, and, as the colored man of\u003cbr\u003eall work about the Bobbsey place had very bow, or curved, legs, Snap\u003cbr\u003eran right between them. That is, he ran half way, and then, as he was\u003cbr\u003ea pretty fat dog, he stuck there.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47079811645680,"sku":"2940013945173","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013945173_p0.jpg?v=1763597620","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013945173","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
