If you like them so much, come down and see ours. Grandpa is out, so you needn't be afraid,' said Laurie, getting up. ¡¡¡¡`I'm not afraid of anything,' returned Jo, with a toss of the head. ¡¡¡¡`I don't believe you are!' exclaimed the boy, looking at her with much admiration, though he privately thought she would have good reason to be a trifle afraid of the old gentleman, if she met him in some of his moods. ¡¡¡¡The atmosphere of the whole house being summer-like, Laurie led the way from room to room, letting Jo stop to examine whatever struck her fancy; and so at last they came to the library, where she clapped her hands, and pranced, as she always did when especially delighted. It was lined with books, and there were pictures and statues and distracting little cabinets full of coins and curiosities, and sleepy-hollow chairs and queer tables, and bronzes; and, best of all, a great open fireplace, with quaint tiles all round it. ¡¡¡¡`What richness!' sighed Jo, sinking into the depth of a velvet chair, and gazing about her with an air of intense satisfaction. `Theodore Laurence, you ought to be the happiest boy in the world,' she added impressively. ¡¡¡¡`A fellow can't live on books,' said Laurie, shaking his head, as he perched on a table opposite. ¡¡¡¡Before he could say more, a bell rang, and Jo flew up, exclaiming with alarm, `Mercy me! it's your grandpa!' ¡¡¡¡`Well, what if it is? You are not afraid of anything, you know,' returned the boy, looking wicked.
