There is something completely magical about wordless books which really just tell a story so wholly and engagingly that the lack of text goes unnoticed.Ī farmer out alone in his fields sees a circus train in the distance and also sees something – someone – fall off the caboose!Ī baby clown finds he is all alone momentarily but the kindly farmer takes him home and not only looks after him but the two form a wonderful friendship and make discoveries about each other in the course of just one day. This one came along accompanied by some hype which I tried not to let impair my judgement but turns out the hype is well-deserved. Every now and then a book comes along which just literally blows one away.
