Reviews

"""A fascinating tour de force that displays the enduring, unique appeal of the circus."" -Kirkus Reviews (starred review) ""There is a magical quality in this book. Yes, it is a circus story, but it is really about the struggles of pursuing a dream, reaching it, and having the courage to push beyond it. It is highly entertaining, masterful storytelling! It reads like a Chaplin silent film, from laugh-out-loud comedy, to moving us to tears, completely capturing the essence of a life in circus."" -Alla Youdina, former creative director of new acts for Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey"
