Hugo's Cat Circus

Hugo's Cat Circus
By Julie Dweck

I love cats. And I like the circus, so I was a little excited for this book. The French cats put on an annual circus, Le Cat Circus Show, and the story takes you through all the different circus acts as well as cat breeds. I think some of the French names and breeds might be hard for kids to read, but it's a great way to introduce them to these words. The main cat, Hugo, was so darling in his little tux. The rhymes are amusing, and so is the mouse juggling. Overall I thought it was sweetly informative and light-hearted.
