Bee, Snake and Inky love the circus and go every summer when the circus tent appears in the field next to the Vowel Forest. They watch a man spinning yo-yos and doing tricks. “Wow!” says Bee. “That is fantastic!” “All that yo-yoing has made me hungry,” says Snake. “Here you are,” says Inky, “I’ve got a yellow banana yoghurt.” “y, y, y, yummy!” hisses Snake.
