“And Twiglet can do this sort of dance,” said Katy. Twiglet was her stick insect, and it was true that sometimes he moved from side to side in quite a rhythmic way, whereas most stick insects stayed still all the time.

“I tell you what, Ellen,” said Crystal graciously. “See if you can teach Splodge a trick or something after school, and then you can bring him along at six o’clock. But it will be a sort of trial. If he’s not unusual enough then he can’t come to any of the other meetings.”

When Ellen got home she found her old hula hoop and took Splodge out into the garden. She held the hoop out in front of him and said, “Jump!”

But Splodge didn’t understand; he just sat looking up at her eagerly as if he expected her to throw the hoop for him. Ellen had to give up on that trick.

She didn’t succeed any better when she tried to teach Splodge to stand up and beg, or to thump his tail three times when she asked how old he was. The only thing he would do was shake hands, but Ellen didn’t think Crystal would call that unusual enough.
