“Where are the ponies?” cried Teddie.
“Where are the camels?” cried Humpty Dumpty.
Then Papa Roly-Poly said, “Hush! be still! You will see the animals soon enough.”
Sure enough, the train stopped at a station just then, and the Roly-Poly family got out.
A man dressed in red and gold came up to them and asked, “Will you ride in the band-wagon?”
They all got into the band-wagon and the band began to play, and they rode on and on until they came to the circus tent.
“Hurrah!” shouted Freddie.
“Hurrah!” shouted Teddie.
“Three cheers!” cried Humpty Dumpty.
The band played “Yankee Doodle,” and the band-wagon drew up in splendid style in front of the tent.
