This is the story of six members of the Bean Team going to the circus. The Bean Team girls include Katy Kidney Bean, Yoko Cocoa Bean, Bea Butter Bean. The Bean Team boys are Rory Runner Bean, Hans Baked Bean, Johnny Jumping Bean.
They see the pony gymnasts, Bob and Jayne, showing their riding skills. They see the three clowns, Goldo, Silvo and Bronzo, with their antics. They see the jugglers, 'The Princelings' twins David and John Prince, doing juggling tricks. It is afternoon at the circus, the Bean Team have a 'stripey' ice cream and popcorn. They see 'The Flying Angels' trapeze artists and 'The Rumbling Tumblers' performing their acts of balancing. A day filled with fun and adventure.
