Joining a circus is rather different from waking up to find the circus has not only joined you, but taken over your house. This hilarious and zany twist of fate delivers a Big Top to the living room, a fire-eater to the fireplace, a seal (with a potty on its nose) to the bath and 'A custard pie in the face' at every doorway. Mum, Dad and poor Aunt Flo are subjected to some amazing treatment. The cleverly crazy illustrations are a brilliant addition to this exhaustingly funny book, making it a must for all ages.
