Nicely done picture book about a man who becomes a circus exhibition, then quits it all to return home again.

There have been several books about such people, oddities that were exhibited during the height of that sort of thing in Victorian times, and it is interesting to see how their life went before and after the circus.


Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.

Cute, and competently illustrated. I wouldn’t say it’s worth buying but it would definitely be worth checking out of the library.

If you get away from the fact you can’t go anywhere, this is a nice book for families. The book has nice exercises and so much information. The illustrations were so so,

Thanks to NetGalley for the arc in exchange for an honest review.
