Books with title The Smallest Circus in the World

Mocked throughout the jungles of India, the smallest elephant in the world—no bigger than a house cat—has decided enough is enough and that if he’s no bigger than a house cat, then a house is where he belongs! After a long journey, this smallest elephant in the world finds himself a home with a nice little boy inside. Unfortunately, the boy’s mother doesn’t believe elephants make suitable house pets… First published in 1959, The Smallest Elephant in the World, written by Alvin Tresselt and illustrated by Milton Glaser, is a witty, sweet, and funny tale of friendship, unlikely disguise, and the search for home.

For years, the beloved clown Leo Mousini was the star attraction at the circus. Every evening he performed astonishing acrobatic feats, daring balancing acts, and complicated juggling tricks. Audiences loved him - especially the children. But as the years passed, the tricks grew harder to do. Leo Mousini grew too old to be a clown. So, sadly, Leo leaves the circus. But two stowaways leave with him, tiny mice who dream of becoming clowns themselves, and they prove to be the key to a wonderful new life for Leo Mousini.
