Olga must dance now but who will dance with her 'I want to dance NOW, I want to flap, kick and jump!' 'Well, don't jump on me!' Said a small brown lump. Olga the brolga is in a terrible mood. She desperately wants to dance - but no-one will dance with her. Her parents have other things to do; Ellie the crocodile doesn't feel like jumping around; and Joanna Jacana only wants to sleep.
