EXCERPT
Professor Heckler came into the ring and announced, "Ladies! And! Gentlemen! Welcome to Professor Heckler's World Famous Flea Circus!" and everyone clapped.
Then the fleas came out and started performing.
One flea pulled the cart. Another flea moved the little ball. Another flea walked along the piece of string. The people could see the cart move two millimetres, and they saw the ball move about half a centimetre, and they couldn't even see the tiny flea walking along the piece of string.
"What a terrible show!" shouted someone in the audience.
"Bor-ing!" shouted someone else.
"What. A load. Of rubbish!" chanted the audience. "Give. Us back. Our money!"
Professor Heckler didn't know what to do. He looked very sad.
You felt sorry for him, so you jumped out of his pocket and into the ring. You went up to that ball and you didn't just kick it – you smashed it into the back of a football net. Then you grabbed that cart and pulled it around the ring so fast you set a new flea world speed record. Then you jumped on that rope and walked along it while juggling seventeen skittles and balancing a lion on your nose!
The audience went wild, screaming and shouting and applauding like crazy. Professor Heckler looked really happy.
