The Circus
Come to The Circus and enter a mysterious and delightful world!
Children travel from near and far to experience the most magical circus. They arrive - like circus performers themselves - being carried by birds, riding atop a stilt-walking elephant, or piloting a flying houseboat. When they get to the circus tent, they watch as the wonderous menagerie parades through the show. Here comes the pig flying with delicate, mechanical wings, the rabbit on stilts with paper lanterns, horses suspended from clouds, singing ravens, a lion training a mouse, and many many more delightful performers.
The Book
This beautiful, large-format hard cover book will captivate you with its gorgeous illustrations and sweetly surreal story.
This is a perfect book for reading aloud to your young children who are just beginning to learn to read, as it only has a phrase or a single sentence per page. But it is also a lovely story for adults as the illustrations create a rich, complex narrative that goes beyond the simple text. It has found its way to many coffee tables amid other art books, as well as many children’s bookshelves to be read over and over again.
The Prints
A collection of prints from the illustrations in The Circus.
