Amos wanted to keep the moon, as other children have wished to do, and his inquiries about a way to accomplish this have an unexpected and satisfactory conclusion. The beautiful pictures have a colorful, lighthearted gaiety in this facsimile edition.

The youngest Rollatini, Bambino, can't join his elders as a circus bareback rider because their Big Wonder Horse, Ammonia, only accommodates five. No other circus act will do for Bambino--he wants to be with his family. Balet's art, as well as his words, have the verve and gala atmosphere of the circus, with double-spreads that run riot with color and motion.
