Oh, dear! I wish we weren’t going home! 'So do I! Can’t we stay out a little while longer?' 'Why, Flossie and Freddie Bobbsey!' cried Nan, the older sister of the two small twins who had spoken. 'A few minutes ago you were in a hurry to get home.' 'Yes; they said they were so hungry they couldn’t wait to see what Dinah was going to have for supper,' said Bert Bobbsey. 'How about that, Freddie?' 'Well, I’m hungry yet,' said the little boy, who was sitting beside his sister Flossie in a boat that was being rowed over the blue waters of Lake Metoka. 'I am hungry, and I want some of Dinah’s pie, but I’d like to stay out longer.' 'So would I,' added Flossie. 'It’s so nice on the lake, and maybe to-morrow it will rain.'
