Reminds of the magical theatrics of "Théâtre Illuminata" only made visual in well dreamy visible form! The illustration were magical and wondrous pair along side a parable about wonder + family + circus life. I did the illustrations told their own wordless story...you tell the nationalities of the different acrobats from little details like posters, flyers etc on their wall, the places the circus visits and the body language of the various characters which suggest the little, emotional things.
Sometimes I have to remind myself that I'm not the intended audience of a picture book. In this case it's because I have no idea what is going on in this story. Is it a flashback? Flashforward? Dream adventure? It probably doesn't matter, but my adult brain wants to know! The illustrations are beautiful, though I was concerned that the idea of being caged was presented as the preferred way to live. At least, that's what I think was being presented...

Gorgeous illustrations and lovely message. The text felt a little off and I'm not sure if kids will connect with it.
