By Rob, Essex Junction, VT

"You can tell a Republican runs this circus. The poor mother horse only gets a month off after foaling. Seriously, what's up with that?

Now, forgetting for a moment that this is intended as a children's book: there is something seriously surreal going on here. Spier writes this in a detached, abstract, sort of journalistic way. As if he's writing an exposé on the circus. For kids. But in a way that they couldn't really grasp. He's not really judging the circus. But he's showing you what's going on under the tent flap. He'll let you judge for yourself.

But then again, the circus looks crazy fun."

"This book doesn't have the magnetism of many children's books. We tend to skip the text and instead just talk about the pictures."

"Be careful with this one - Spier makes the circus look so appealing you might find that your little one really wants to run away and join the circus! Spier is a master of minutely detailed spreads that fascinate and absorb children (okay, and grown ups too!) Here he tells, through mostly pictures, and some narration, about the various aspects of the circus from the day it rolls into town until the sad day that it must pack up and move on to the next city. Small children might not be interested in the accompanying text, but all children will be delighted by the illustrations and will enjoy scanning them for new details with each reading."

"Mommy says: Elaborate and detailed pictures and slightly sophisticated text show how a circus is set up, performs and is taken down. My kids were enthralled with the pictures while I read what was going on."
