Circus Mirandus
by Cassie Beasley
There is a reason this book is receiving as much buzz as it is, and it isn't just because it features a circus. Though the beginning of the book starts slow, with Micah Tuttle trying in vain to deal with his dying grandfather and his mean great aunt who has come to stay, once you get to the magic (and yes, there is magic), the book is exactly that: magical. It's almost like a book about Santa Claus only in this case Santa is a circus with more wide reaching implications. This is a story that begs for further interpretation and thought. Kids who read this will be inspired.
