A 12-year-old girl travels the globe with her parents' circus, having
adventures and learning to appreciate the joys of being
different.
"My name is Violette Vermeer: Dutch father, French
mother...citizen of the world! My house has a thousand rooms...one for every
place we've passed through!"
Her name is Violette, like the
flower in the spring, like the seventh color of the rainbow. She lives with the
Circus of the Moon, where her mother is the stuntwoman and her father is the
insect tamer. At the end of the 19th-century, Violette is a curious, happy
12-year-old who is fascinated by the beauty of the world around her: music,
painting, drawing, nature, and much more. She shares adventures with her friend
Samir (a budding trapeze artist), her unusual animal friends, and her
father's trained insects!
This, the first of three books, takes
place in Paris, where Violette has to balance her time between the freedom of
the circus and her homework at school. But Paris is the city of beauty and art,
and soon she will make an encounter with a very special person!
