Why read it?
1 author picked The Break Down of the Circus as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
My daughter's cousin wrote this book, but she just read it this year. They spent a lot of time together during the family reunion and started talking about things that were important to them. When she found out that he was an author and that he had actually written the book when he was in middle school, she was fascinated. And she really loved the book!
It's a wonderful read on friendship and loyalty, two qualities my daughter treasures.
