Early one evening, a young boy called Olly was taken to see a performing circus as a special treat. For Olly it proved to be a very interesting night, filled with excitement and drama, as the various performers went through their acts. This story is about the things Olly saw during the circus performance, and about a dream he had later that night as he lay asleep in his bed. This particular book aims to teach young readers about the plight of the world's endangered animals and was written in support of zoo parks and conservation projects around the world.
