  Nan, Bert, Flossie, and Freddie are back in Lakeport! While their previous adventures took them far afield, The Bobbsey Twins at Home proves that life in a busy household is never quiet. From winter snowstorms and sledding mishaps to the excitement of school days and local festivities, the twins find themselves at the center of every neighborhood event.
