erinmp 's review for:
Tree Ring Circus
by Adam Rex
A fast growing tree three miles out of town attracts all kinds of animals. There's 3 chipmunks, 2 sparrows and a whopping big bee. A chicken, 2 blue jays, a clown. Five mice and raven. And it goes on and on. The circus shows up looking for its clown, but two mischief-making apes let all of the animals out and the circus men run away. But what will happen when the elephant tries to get in the already crowded tree?
I'm a little conflicted on this. I loved, loved the illustrations (well, except for the sort of scary clown and the circus men straight out of any circus nightmare). And I always love any circus story. It's a good book to read aloud, but I agree with the reviewer who stated that the book is not good for children learning to read because of the different sized fonts and words. Plus, the ending is abrupt and doesn't really feel like an end. Did love those illustrations, though.
