The Circus

The children’s book ‘Circus’ was published
for the first time in 1925 and was an instant
success. Even today it remains a well-
loved story which enraptures children with
its clever verses and funny turns. For this
edition Goppe choose line drawings in a
free, almost sketchy, style that highlight the
actions of the story.
