Description
James Otis has written a delightful story of circus life for grades 4 to 7. Children will delight in this fantasy about running away with a circus. Toby Tyler runs away from home with the lemonade man to join the circus, and then works very hard to run away from the circus and go home again. In between, he makes many good friends, including the Living Skeleton and Mr. Stubbs, the monkey.

I read this when I was very young - grade 5? I loved it. I recently found an old copy of it and will reread it soon or read it to my daughters. Nothing like the Walt Disney version.
