To the Big Top

When the circus comes to Willow Grove, Benny and Sam are in for more excitement than they can shake a stick at: elephants and acrobats, candied apples and a calliope, even a snake enchantress. They canâ€™t think of anything better than helping the circus men set up for the grand event â€“ until the Big Top boss gives them two tickets for the show! But then Samâ€™s ticket disappears, and itâ€™s up to Benny to save the best day ever.
A tribute to the great occasions and small gestures that children will remember for a lifetime, this boisterous tale about fun and friendship is enlivened by David Gordonâ€™s jubilant illustrations.
To the Big Top is a 2009 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.
