In her matter-of-fact way, Magnolia (If You Ever Want to Bring a Piano to the Beach, Don't!) demonstrates that even if a poster states "you can do ANYTHING at the library," you should definitely not bring in a circus. With a text that uses repetition and sound words and bright, playful illustrations with lots of movement and hilarity, this PSA makes a great read-aloud.
