Welcome, quite literally, inside the mind of a noisy, tantrumming child. Inside her head is the Noise-A-Matron, the nonsense machine that makes all her wailingly naughty noises. We also meet the workers who make sure the machine is always going full blast!
But suddenly the child's parents, the dreaded Dullundrears, order her to BE QUIET!
What happens to the workers? No noise, no Noise-A-Matron, no jobs! But all is not lost! The workers start a Circus to replace the Noise-A-Matron. It is full of outrageous acts like Snake-Knitting and Chook-Balancing-A Concertina'd Man, a roistering Ringmaster and a laughs-aloud Clown.
Circus Carnivore is a child's journey from Noise-some to Joy-some! Roll Up! Roll Up! Same decibels as when she's misbehaving but a whole different ball game!
Written and illustrated in an infectiously joyous style, Circus Carnivore will capture readers of all ages drawing them back again and again to delight in the deliriously explosive illustrations and the sheer joy of wickedly wild nonsense verse wordplay.
