“The circus is in town…”
The story
What happens when a very loud clown takes over a very important house?
At first it's fun. He shouts. He boasts. He makes enormous promises. Then something slowly tips over. Friends start to feel overlooked, the house gets loud and confusing, and nobody is quite sure any more what's right and what isn't.
This is a funny, clear-eyed story about leadership and responsibility that never wags a finger. It trusts children to spot absurdity on their own, because they usually do.
A book to read aloud, laugh at together, and talk about afterwards.
