NAME:

What a circus!

“Great circus parade in the village square!” you hear it in the streets.
– What luck! – exclaims Marô, the hunting dog – I'm going right away!
In front of the circus, he meets Peluche, the poodle, who sighs and moans loudly.
- Why is she crying? – Marô asks him.
– Because tonight I need to walk on two legs, jump on a hoop… I'm fed up, fed up!!!
– How I would like to be a star… – Marô sighs – Ah!… The lights, the music, the applause…

– Take my place! - Exclaims Peluche - I'm sure I'll make an excellent hunting dog.
No sooner said than done. Since then, Marô has been the show's biggest attraction.
