One of the longest running story series for children is "The
Bobbsey Twins" and it has delighted children and their parents for
over a hundred years now. Follow the adventures of two sets of
young twins at the turn of the Twentieth Century when there were no
telephones, radios, or televisions, and horses and carriages were
common-place. * * * * When the series begins (1904), Bert and Nan
are eight, and Flossie and Freddie are four. The twins enjoy
wonderful days filled with sunshine and love with their playmates,
Grace, Nellie, and Charlie, and get into and out of trouble as only
little kids can manage. Their dog, Snap, and their cat, Snoop, go
along on many of their adventures as the twins spend the summer on
Blueberry Island and many things happened to them, to their goat,
cat, and dog, and to a queer boy. Freddie lost some of his
"go-around" bugs, and there is something in the book about a cave.
Then the family goes on a voyage to an island off the coast of
Florida, to rescue a poor, sick boy who had been left there by
mistake, and many things happen on their trip. Finally, the family
visits our nation's capital Washington, and see not only George
Washington's Monument, but the president as well, and all the while
Bert and Nan search for two of Miss Pompret's lost China dishes. *

written in the early 20th Century by the Stratemeyer Syndicate.

Stratemeyer, who then produced outlines for the other books in the
series and hired writers to produce the actual books using a
pseudonym. For the Bobbsey Twins' series the fake name was Laura
Lee Hope. * * * * "The Bobbsey Twins on Blueberry Island" was
published in 1917, "The Bobbsey Twins on the Deep Blue Sea" was
