Smarty Pants the Fox, Book 2

Narrado por: Mr Stephen John Trigwell

This bedtime children's story, subtitled Smarty Joins the Circus ... is book 2, in a 4 part series titled Smarty Pants the Fox. The books in this series are also designed to be great company for your child while you are busy driving, providing a perfect listening focus.

This adventure sees Smarty leave his Secret Valley in the South West of Australia, exploring the nearby town of Donnybrook to investigate a big new circus tent which has been erected on the town oval. Smarty encounters exotic animals including a lion, a tiger, an elephant and a huge reticulated python. The lion and the python try to eat Smarty but, as always, our clever hero escapes and while running away, inadvertently finds himself in the main circus arena, inside the massive tent. Here, in front of 500 people, Smarty performs tricks while riding on an elephant, then flies high above the crowd on a trapeze before dramatically falling, saved only by landing in a bucket of water. While his Mum and Dad watch the circus clowns with all the other onlookers, Smarty hatches a plan to release all the animals. Later that night, when everyone has left the circus, Smarty quietly sets all the animals free ... then leads them along the Noneycup Creek, all the way to the Secret Valley, where they live happily ever after.

As with Book 1 (The Great Journey) in the Smarty Pants the Fox series, this bedtime story also features authentic Australian animal/bush sounds to give added interest and drama for the listener.
