Do You Believe a Poem Can Inspire You for the Whole Day?
The Ascension Circus has come to town! These poems are inspired by simple circus themes, and as with the traditional circus of days past, are meant for ladies and gentleman and children of all ages.
Section 1 introduces us to mythical Longboard Beach and some of the characters who live there. In section 2, while they wait for the circus to open, there is a talent show happening at the cantina.
In section 3, we go to the newly created playground, Joy Playground where the child within experiences many emotions.
In sections 4 and 5, journey through The Ascension Circus midway and visit exotic tents, meet curious people, and circus animals. Buy a ticket to explore a secret cave or for an airplane ride from the past with wing walkers.
Life is a three-ring circus in section 6. The big top show entertains us with many different acts, some traditional and some never experienced before. After the fat lady sings, the big top closes and night dreams begin.
Not to worry, in section 7, there is a delightful parade out of town. After waving goodbye to our new friends, we settle back into Longboard Beach with new, expansive perspectives. Our hearts are open to new possibilities.
Thank you for visiting the circus!

On the surface, Robertson takes the reader on a rollicking journey with the circus, but thoughtful reading brings several themes to life--connections with others, acceptance, and moving on when you think you can't take another step. The illustrations add a Silverstein feel to the book. Three cheers for the variety of poems. Well done, Ms. Robertson!
