Basil wants to dance with joy -Brown Bear’s Big Day Out

Basil is so happy that he has escaped from the zoo that he wants to dance but then he realises that people are far too serious most of the the time that they would actually dance in the street.

The story is about a bear who disguises himself as a person so that he can visit a funfair called Dizzyland.

I always love the spinning teacups; I always picked the blue one 💙
