Summary |
"The Bobbsey Twins in the Great West" by Laura Lee Hope is a children's adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the beloved Bobbsey family, particularly the twin siblings Bert, Nan, Flossie, and Freddie, as they embark on an exciting journey to the western United States after receiving surprising news that changes their summer plans. The book explores themes of family, adventure, and the exploration of new places, presenting the twins as they engage with their surroundings and the people they meet. The opening portion of the book introduces the Bobbsey twins enjoying a winter day in Lakeport, where they are making snowmen and playing in the snow. Their fun is interrupted by the sound of a train wreck nearby, which prompts them to rush off with their friends to investigate. As they approach the scene of the accident, they encounter Mr. Hiram Hickson, a passenger from the wreck, who is disoriented and searching for his belongings. The narrative sets the stage for the adventure that will follow, as the children eventually learn they will be traveling to the West, leading to explorations of new terrains and encounters with various characters along their journey.
