The smaller ones, like
Freddie, had coasted downhill on their sleds. This was fun in which
Flossie also shared.
April came with plenty of showers, but the showers brought the May
flowers, just as it says in the little verse. And then came June,
which seemed the best month of all.
"Aren't you glad?" asked Bert of Nan, as four Bobbsey twins were on
their way to school one beautiful June morning, when the birds were
singing and the flowers in the yards along the way were all in
blossom.
"Glad? What for?" asked Nan.
"'Cause school will soon be over and we'll have a long vacation,"
answered Bert.
"Oh, that's so!" agreed Nan. "We have only a few more weeks of school.
I hope I pass my examinations."
"I hope so, too," agreed Bert. "I'm going to study real hard."
"So'm I!" murmured Nan. "Oh, look! There goes Mr. Hickson on a pile of
daddy's lumber!" she cried. "Maybe he'll give us a ride to school."
They shouted to the old man, who was now one of the best of Mr.
Bobbsey's helpers in the lumberyard.
