My Riddle

      Baggy is a very nice and joyful person. He is a fat man with a large red nose, big feet, funny clothes and occasionally a flower that shoots water. We can see him at the circus. He tells jokes, throws colourful pies, does tricks, and makes animals with balloons. People laugh because his acts are very amusing. He sometimes does stupid things and people think they are more intelligent than him. I enjoy his show because he makes me happy all the time and I even have a large poster of him in my bedroom. Certainly Baggy is children's best friend and I think all of them adore him very much.
