Buster the Juggling Clown

Buster was an incredible juggler.

Out of his Clown Class he was by far the best juggler.

Buster had just one problem.

Every time he juggled two balls that were the same color,

he completely dropped what he was juggling.

Mr. Bongos was Buster’s teacher. He told Buster to wear sunglasses when he juggled. Mr. Bongos explained that the sunglasses would hoodwink Buster’s eyes into not noticing the color difference.

Buster was amazed of how the sunglasses tricked his eyes. He could final juggle balls of any color at any time.
