Micah's story keeps me wanting to visit Circus Mirandus and keep my ear free to find that music.

A very good ending
Loved this book! I liked the first one enough to read this, but I didn't think that it was such a great read that I would remember it in a few months.
However, this book changed that. This is storytelling at its best. One of this books that make you feel like magic is real

this has got to be one of my favorite books I’ve ever read. yes, I am almost 17 and still reading a book marked for 9-12 year olds, but I don’t care ! Circus Mirandus, I love you so much, like that’s my FAMILY right there. I seriously don’t know if I’ve experienced such a rush from a book since my earlier childhood when I was first discovering the magic of reading through The Magic Treehouse and Harry Potter (despite my now hatred for J.K. Rowling). this is just so beautifully written. I didn’t want it to end, and it hurt to close the book, but as this book puts it perfectly, I’ll never lose the memories.
Thank you, Cassie Beasley, for writing the Circus Mirandus books. my heart feels full in a way it didn’t quite feel beforehand. I needed this, and both as a person figuring things out and as a young writer, I am so inspired.

I LOVED this book! I thought it was so fun to learn about the different magicians’ magical specialities. The author tied pieces of the story together in beautiful ways.
My two favorite quotes were:
“When evil asks us to bow before it, it is our job to stand taller.”
“Putting something beautiful and good into the world always [matters].”
Can’t wait to have it on my own bookshelf!
