Bunny was to do some "acts" on the trapeze, and fall down in the hay. Then he and Sue were to do part of a little Punch and Judy show they had once given, though Bunny, this time, had no big lobster claw to put on his nose.
"All ready now!" called Bunny, when his friends were in the barn. "All ready to practise for the circus!"
CHAPTER XII
THE LITTLE CIRCUS
"Bunny! Bunny Brown! What am I going to be in the circus? I want to be a clown!"
"Yes, I want to be a clown, too, and throw water over another clown, like I saw in a circus once!"
"Well, you're not going to throw any water on me!"
"Yes I can if Bunny Brown says so! It's his circus!"
Tom White, Jimmie Kenny and Ned Johnson were talking together in one corner of the barn. Ned wanted to be a clown, and throw water on some one else. Jimmie did not want to be the one to get wet, nor did Tom White.
