Informative, well written, heart wrenching - an overall excellent read with an ending which made me melt with romantic glee. Can you tell I loved the book?
This book was well written and very descriptive. I found myself learning a lot about the circus, which is something that I find interesting and finished the book in a matter of days. I felt for the characters, particularly Rosie (the elephant). An uplifting story about a man reliving an important, life-changing part of his life.

What a fun read. I read this as a first book discussion group experience and am now hookied. I loved the book and even though I finished it well over a week ago, I am still thinking aobut the characters and changing my mind about what the author had in mind to portray. This book has lots of interesting characters and subplots.
