You See a Circus, I See...

The media could not be loaded. This is wonderful story about a little boy who lives in the circus. The author describes all the characters as an outsider might see them, and then the little boy tells you who the person really IS!In this day and age, this is SUCH AN IMPORTANT LESSON to teach our children. Do not judge. Do not compare. Look beyond outer appearances for the beautiful human soul that resides within.Anik McGrory's artwork is magical!

I bought this for my granddaughter and both of us thoroughly enjoyed this walk through a small life of imagination.Imagination is so important to a child's and an adult's life and this is portrayed wonderfully throughout this book with words and lovely art work.

This is a good story for children to see through the eyes of another child's point of view. This is a great book for children to have read to them.

Bought for circus tripChild had difficulty with story line . That it was about a boys family

The narrator take you into the life of a circus by comparing and contrasting what you see and what he sees. The illustrations are nicely done.

I loved this book, tied in with my circus theme wonderfully. About a little boy who lives with the circus, fun story about what you see at the circus. I read this the week the circus came to town, the kids loved it. Great book!

Great story enjoyed by allk the summer art kids for the sessions of THE CIRCUS.

This is a sweet story about a child whose parents are circus performers. While we might see them as unique or perhaps a bit strange, this child sees a family. It is a warm reminder that families come in all shapes and sizes and that we all have special talents, but also much in common. The art work has a gentle, sweet style that is age-appropriate to the story.

I bought this book to use for a lesson to teach what it's like to live in the circus as part of the International Primary Curriculum. Used with 5-6 year olds. Simple story to help explain e.g you see a strong man, I see my uncle ... and it goes on to explain a little about each.

The book was exactly what I wanted to give the children in my class a glimpse of what it might be like to live as part of a circus. The school is having Circus week and this book will give a look at the real people who are the circus performers.

Love this book. I ordered this as a 2ND copy for use with a year 1 class as our topic was "The Circus" and we were studying predictable & repetitive stories in literacy. Perfect!

I love it!

Our daughter and us read it every night and the rhymes are so nice that she already started learning them by heart.
