In a midwestern town, life is deadly dull for two seventeen year old girls until the circus comes to town, bringing the handsome Flying Zorinis with it. The love-struck, starry-eyed girls see the circus several times just to watch the Zorinis. A few coffee dates after the show before the circus moves on leave the girls a little older, a little wiser, but forced to remain in the still unexciting town where love began. Slightly childish and slow for this age group-- by the author of Sparrow Lake (1962, p. 184, J-62).
