🎪 Welcome to A Backyard Circus! 🎪
Where imagination takes center stage
“Step right up!” — The backyard transforms into a magical stage.

There’s something truly special about the way children play. It’s messy. It’s loud. It’s wonderfully unpredictable. And sometimes… it becomes a full-blown circus. That’s exactly what A Backyard Circus is all about—a colorful celebration of creativity, friendship, and good old-fashioned fun.
A Book Inspired by Real Backyard Magic
As a mom, performer, and illustrator, I’ve watched firsthand how the backyard becomes a stage, a jungle, a pirate ship—or in this case, a circus tent. This book was born from those moments. From the way kids transform ordinary toys into spectacular props, and how an upside-down bucket can become a drum fit for the ringmaster.
“Who’s ready for the show?” — Every child has a starring role.

With playful rhymes and energetic illustrations, A Backyard Circus captures the wild joy of putting on a show with friends. It’s a reminder that screens don’t have to be the star—kids already have everything they need to be entertained and to entertain each other.

More Than a Book—It’s an Invitation
A Backyard Circus isn’t just a story—it’s an experience. After reading, don’t be surprised if your kids grab costumes, hoops, and sidewalk chalk to start their own backyard show. And honestly, you might want to join them.
