Sinopse

We Are A Circus is the charming, autobiographical tale of a rainbow family, riding around Thessaloniki on a bike. They are poor and living precariously, but they are happy together and have fun in the sun and in the rain (though sometimes they get a bit cold).
As the book progresses, we follow them through the seasons, playing and cycling and fending off the weather. When their landlord turfs them out of their house, things get more serious as they have to find a new home, fast.
Nasta has created an exuberant, compassionate story, which is beautifully complemented by Rosie Fencott's energetic artwork.
**Longlisted for the 2024 Klaus Flugge Illustration Award **
We are a circus.
Fortunately not like the ones that train animals.
(Fortunately means "happiness")
We are trained by animals! They even make us jump through flaming hoops!

I am kidding. Animals would never do this.

In Caro Carrowack Damian and Luis. masterfully weave a tale of resilience, self discovery, wit and the pursuit of worth in the face of adversity. Intended to sperak to parents and young adults alike, everyone is invited to join Caro as she navigates the tumultuous waters of their own identity and her moral compass, and seeks a place in the world that often feels indifferent.
