Emma’s Circus

Emma has nev­er been to a cir­cus, so she is espe­cial­ly excit­ed to see a cir­cus parade in town. But her father says she can’t go and see it — they have to get their farm ready for win­ter. So instead … the cir­cus comes to her! This play­ful, imag­i­na­tive tale from Can­dace Flem­ing will have read­ers smil­ing and join­ing in the fun of Emma’s amaz­ing circus.

Reviews

“A fun and rol­lick­ing read-aloud to share with a group … Davenier’s hap­py, splashy ink and water­col­or illus­tra­tions tell the sto­ry with dynam­ic, clut­tered detail.” (School Library Jour­nal)
