Circus Girl

(3) K-3 When the traveling circus comes to town, a new girl joins the class for the week. Circus Girl, as she's known, brings a shy boy out of his shell and helps the narrator appreciate this classmate he'd previously ignored. The multiple panels of illustrations capture a surprising amount of the action, and the childlike perspective and first-person narrative lend the book familiarity and warmth.
