Overview:

When The Circus Came To Town : In this wacky, offbeat novel that uses humor to expose the irrationality of prejudice, Horvath combines raucous slapstick with sharp, dry comedy. A small, quiet town becomes divided when some circus folk set down roots - and, heaven forbid, decide to enter baked goods in the town's annual bake sale. Fifth-grader Ivy, pompous and manipulative, loyal and tough, and much too wise for her years, narrates the goings-on, including her own role in the turmoil.
