Then she handed the sparkler over to Harry. "It's very pretty," said Harry carefully, "but it doesn't really sparkle."
"Aha!" said Lizzie. "What you need to do is hold the end of the straw between your two paws and swizzle it backwards and forwards between them."
Harry tried that and was amazed how his sparkler suddenly came to life! It fizzled and sizzled just like a real sparkler! He was thrilled with it!
All the other bears immediately wanted one too, and Lizzie helped them all make one for themselves. They all stood in a line, setting their sparklers to sparkle one by one. They loved how the sparklers looked.
"Thanks, Lizzie," said Harry. "This is the best sparkler I've ever had!"
"I'm glad it has worked so well," she replied. "And if the weather isn't very nice on Bonfire Night we can still have all the fun of the fireworks inside instead."
