Circus of Shadows

‘Circus of Shadows’ by Lidia Brankovic

From the acclaimed author of The Grand Hotel of Feelings, this fantastical adventure takes children on an journey of reflection and self-acceptance. Lika has never given much thought to her shadow. Sometimes it’s long, sometimes it’s short… but it’s never anything more than a shadow.

That is until the day it starts acting strangely. When Lika waves a hand, Shadow raises a foot. When Lika sits down, Shadow stands up.

Lika tries to hide, but the smaller she makes herself, the bigger Shadow becomes. When Shadow whisks Lika off to a curious land of shadows – and right into a spooky shadow circus – she must look deep inside herself to find her way back home. A poignant and uplifting book about exploring and acknowledging the parts of ourselves that we try to hide from and embracing the shadows within.
