小珍在馬戲團長大,她的家人個個身懷絕技:媽媽可以在馬背上跳舞、爸爸是大力士、哥哥們全都是砲彈飛人、姊姊們還會走鋼索!不過小珍好像就沒有特殊本領,她並不特別勇敢、也不特別優雅,無論嘗試哪一種特技表演,最後都失敗收場。她試著畫畫,結果畫出了四不像;她試著演奏音樂,卻害人聽得頭疼。當她嘗試站在大球上平衡的時候,更是引發連環大災難!難道小珍都沒有拿手的本事嗎?馬戲團團長提醒她:你做自己,就很可愛啊!我們最喜歡熱心、樂觀的小珍了!【文∕博客來外文館】
For anyone with a beloved pet, this delightful and heartwarming story set at the circus shows that quiet qualities like friendship, kindness, and loyalty are important and worthy.
Jane is an ordinary dog in an extraordinary circus. She isn't strong, graceful, or brave like her family. When she tries to be those things, Jane just doesn't feel like herself, but she also
doesn't feel special. Is she really meant for this kind of life? Her Ringmaster thinks so, but not for the reasons Jane believes.
Ordinary can be extraordinary!
