I adore this book! I read it within a weeks time!! I cant wait to see the movie!

I loved this book! It was touching, intriguing, and unlike anything else I've read. I liked that it bounced back from present time to the past as well. Yes there's an element of fantasy regarding the circus plot but I really enjoyed that as well.

I really liked this book. Very well written, held my attention and left me anxious to get back to reading when I was pulled away. When I finished the book I had a very satisfied feeling...all my questions were answer and pulled together. Excellent!

I loved this book! I couldn't put it down! The storyline was awesome and you really felt like you got to know what circus life was really like. I loved the connection between him and the elephant. I've passed this book around to quite a few of my friends.

Loved the book, read it years ago, will read it again.

Wonderful book! Great read cannot wait to rent the DVD!!!!!!

Loved the book! Could not put it down once I started it. Had looked forward to moving coming out and the movie is okay, not great, but worth seeing. I did not particularly care for Reese Witherspoon in the movie. I don't think she was the perfect fit for the part.

Wonderful story!

Great plot line! Overall great story.

I loved this book but hated the animal abuse. Never in my life will I attend a circus where animals are not in their natural habitat. STOP ANIMAL ABUSE!

OMG I loved the movie but have not read the book yet and I usally tend not do that in this order but what an amazing story. I cannot wait to get the book.

We read this book in my book club and we all loved it! It's a page turner....!!

i loved this story, its sucked me in from the very beginning. The author gave such in depth descriptions of the behind the scenes of a traveling circus its was like i was right there with them.

Read this book a couple of years ago. It was kind of a slow start but I decided to stick with it. Boy, am I glad I did! One of the best books I've ever read.

Great read. An interesting and absorbing story that hooks you in the beginning & doesn't let go. No wonder they made it into a movie!
