(2) K-3 In a rambunctious parody, Ms. Splinter takes her class to the circus and devotes the entire performance to expounding on the "great learning experience" they're having--completely unaware that one of her students has been lifted into the ring by an elephant and is being tossed from one act to another. Priceman captures the show's frenzied grace in freely painted forms that dance and swirl in a richly saturated palette.
Reviewer: Joanna Rudge Long | Horn Book Magazine Issue: May, 1999
