Reissue (1959, Lippincott)
(2) K-3 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.
