"Trumpets tooting, cannon shooting. / Music playing, horses neighing." Rhyming text introduces a circus act that descends into humorous chaos after Zebra mistakenly steps on Lion's toe. Double-page spreads filled with riotous action, rendered in watercolor and gouache, show the wide-eyed animals racing through a busy seaside town and the humans trying to get out of their way.
