Wonderful story!

Wonderful story!

Loved the book! Could not put it down once I started it. Had looked forward to moving coming out and the movie is okay, not great, but worth seeing. I did not particularly care for Reese Witherspoon in the movie. I don't think she was the perfect fit for the part.

Beautiful book......and a timely holiday gift, since the movie got so much press. (My favorite holiday gift.....new books. A book is the eternally perfect accessory.)

I loved this book! I couldn't put it down! The storyline was awesome and you really felt like you got to know what circus life was really like. I loved the connection between him and the elephant. I've passed this book around to quite a few of my friends.

I really liked this book. Very well written, held my attention and left me anxious to get back to reading when I was pulled away. When I finished the book I had a very satisfied feeling...all my questions were answer and pulled together. Excellent!

I loved this book! It was touching, intriguing, and unlike anything else I've read. I liked that it bounced back from present time to the past as well. Yes there's an element of fantasy regarding the circus plot but I really enjoyed that as well.

By far this is one of the best books I have read. I typically do not like fiction but the romance and mystery was a page turner. I also recommend the movie but as always, the book is better :)

I did enjoy this story, the only bad thing I have to say about it is that I felt like I was waiting for something bigger to happen and it never did, all in all though I would recommend it.

I enjoyed this story. It was very vivid & I felt I was on that traveling circus with them.
