![]() ![]() It's a very fun and enjoyable book with an excellent narration, and its magic will leave both children and adults smiling. (And presuming, of course, that the adults running Circus Mirandus were once children themselves.) But despite not buying some of the sentimentality, I can still get behind the charm of this story, and am excited to share it with my kids. It seems disingenuous and hopeless, since all children grow up. I'm a little uncomfortable with one of the themes in the story being that only children can see and accept magic, and that performing it for them is what keeps magic in the world. Now, Micah is hoping to find Circus Mirandus and the Lightbender again, in hopes of saving his Grandpa's life. Use features like bookmarks, note taking and highlighting while reading Circus Mirandus.

Circus Mirandus - Kindle edition by Beasley, Cassie. The story centers around Micah and his grandfather, and the ties that knot them together - their belief in Circus Mirandus. ![]() The story itself centers on family and friendship, and carries a weight of emotion that is punctuated by Pinchot's incredible reading. Darque, Circus Mirandus' main attraction is The Man Who Bends Light, or the Lightbender. In some ways, Beasley's circus is the opposite of Pandemonium: it aims to bring miracles and joy to children. This is a story that should please children of all ages - including those (older) among us who loved Ray Bradbury. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I haven't read the novel version but this graphic novel version flows really well and is cute with some good messages.

Persephone's friends and mom don't want her hanging out with him, but when she talks to Hades Persephone feels free to be herself for once and she thinks the others aren't giving him a chance. He's kind of an outcast at school because of where he's from. ![]() She's about to a breaking point when she meets Hades. Her mom told her as a child to go along with others to get along and ever since she's buried what she really thinks and just tells others what she thinks they want to hear and does what they want to do. ![]() ![]() ![]() Increase their chances of winning custody Provide love, support, and positive role models, even in the midst of abuse This book, the first ever of its kind, shows mothers how to: - Protect children and help them heal emotionally Whether it's physical or "just" emotional abuse, whether it's aimed at them or you, whether they see or hear it, your kids need you.
