Böcker av Janet Sumner Johnson

Olivia was supposed to buy eggs at the shop. Instead, she bought a circus! Between food fights and a lack of toilet training, her mum is not thrilled. When Mr Victor refuses to take the animals back, it's off to the zoo for Olivia's new friends... unless she can find a way to prove that she is in control of her circus. Janet Sumner Johnson (Braver Than Brave, A Bad Case of the Almosts, and Help Wanted, Must Love Books) takes a simple idiom and turns it into a hilarious story of one girl's love of animals, weaving in themes of responsibility, determination and creative thinking.
