Prologue
The Big Top floated to the soft grass like paper. IT's weight shifting from one side to the other until it laid on the ground like a rag doll.
"Honey!" Somone behind me called.
I turned around to see mommy running to me, smiling and holding out the stuffed Circus Rabbit I'd been looking for.
"Here you are dear, I found it when Daddy and I moved the trunk!" She smiled.
I squealed in delight, hugging the Rabbit by the neck tightly. His little black top hat sat firmly against my nose, pressing into it.
I held it out infront of me, checking to make sure the red and yellow coat was straight, the cane was still stiched to his paw, and his silk bow tie was straight.
After all, the Ringleader of any Circus should always look like, well... a leader!
