When the Circus came to Town, January 3, 2008
By Lazy Panda "Panda" (CA USA) - See all my reviews

This story is about a young girl named Ursula that lives in a small town in china and she is an only child that had a dream to go to the circus. But then one day she caught a type of disease called smallpox that makes your face look scarry and would make you feel a little bit uncomfortable like going somewhere esle like the farmers market and people staring at you. Then one day while Ursula had this disease, one of her parent's Chinese cook,called Ah Sam wanted to help her also to cheer her up, so one day Ah Sam surprised Ursula by bringing a circus crew to her town but,their was one problem the circus came with nobody to play music for them so one of the people in the circus crew went to find someone to play music for them but they looked all over the town but couldn't find anyone to play music for them so they had an idea to ask Ursula and now she is the only one that can play the harmonica so then they asked her but now shes afraid to show her face so then she said maybe and then they gave her some time to think. Later thinked about it and said yes because she didn't care anymore about what people thought about her face.
