Lewis Clowns Around
£6.99
“There once were two puffins
who lived on a rock;
Harris was happy, but Lewis was not.
The waves make me seasick,
the wind makes me spin,
Im hopeless at flying I just dont fit in
”
So Lewis waves his brother goodbye and flaps off to join the circus. But when his clown act goes terribly wrong, can the young misfit puffin conquer his fears and save the day?
