The Big Parade
In this adventure, the Mayor of your town
calls your child and asks him (or her) to ride in a fire truck and be the
host of the Big Parade! Your lucky child gets to lead "The Big Parade" down
Main street.
What an exciting adventure. First comes the band stepping smartly and
playing wonderful marching songs. Then a beautiful bareback rider with
two prancing horses. And a dancing bear, a slippery seal, elephants, a
majestic lion, monkeys, jugglers, acrobats and of course clowns.
For ages 3-9, hard cover, 6 3/4 by 8 1/4, 36 pages, $15.95 with

The circus elephants
followed next. As he watched the playful pranks of the darling baby
elephant, Jimmy daydreamed about taking him home. When the
elephant fanned his big floppy ears,
Jimmy could almost picture him
flying through the sky with the greatest of ease. If the baby
strayed too far, the mother elephant would lovingly wrap her trunk around
his.

Love Mom
May 15, 2010
Jimmy Wigent sat
up wide awake in his bed. The sun was just coming up in
Battle Creek,
MI. He could tell that it was going to be a gorgeous day.
He
glanced out his bedroom window. Jimmy remembered exactly where
he was
planning to go today with Tyler, Zach and Josh.
Jimmy had been
so excited for the past week. With Tyler, Zach and Josh,
he made a game
of finding the most circus posters all over town. Today was the big
parade and that meant the start of all the circus activities. Jimmy had
even tried to go to sleep as fast as he could last night to make the morning
come more quickly.
Jimmy began to
think about all the fantastic fun he would have. Last year,
his favorite
act was the clown with the invisible dog. Jimmy wondered if the clown
would be there again today. Then Jimmy thought about the child who would
be selected to lead the parade. Who would that lucky person be?
Just then the
phone rang. "Jimmy Wigent, will you lead the big parade for us this
year?" asked the mayor of Battle Creek, MI. "Oh, yes, yes!"
exclaimed Jimmy. "Will I get to ride in the fire truck?" The mayor
chuckled, "You most certainly will, Jimmy!"
Tyler, Zach and
Josh waited with Jimmy while a huge helicopter landed in
his back yard.
It was there to pick up Jimmy. The helicopter took off minutes later
with Jimmy in the front seat grinning from ear to ear. After waving
goodbye, Tyler, Zach and Josh hurried downtown to see the parade.
Immediately
behind the band was a beautiful bareback rider. Her two magnificent,
prancing horses were so well trained that the rider could balance on both
their backs while standing up. Jimmy imagined that the fine, fancy
feathers on the noble horses' heads were bobbing to the beat of the music.
He bobbed his head also.
The fire truck
turned a corner. Jimmy saw three small children mimicking the dancing
bear who was dressed in a pink ballerina costume. The big, brown bear
was very entertaining as she proudly performed bouncy steps while bouncing on
a ball.
The circus
elephants followed next. As he watched the playful pranks of the darling
baby elephant, Jimmy daydreamed about taking him home. When the elephant
fanned his big floppy ears, Jimmy could almost picture him flying through the
sky with the greatest of ease. If the baby strayed too far, the mother
elephant would lovingly wrap her trunk around his.
A jolly juggler
on a unicycle juggling five full bottles fascinated Tyler, Zach and Josh.
He pedaled so fast that there were times when it was hard to keep up with him.
It was incredible that he never dropped a bottle, no matter how fast he
pedaled. Tyler, Zach and Josh knew it took practice to be that good.
Jimmy was amused
by the antics of the slippery seal. The seal would flip the ball
backwards and then, with his hind flippers, smack it right back to the tip of
his nose. Everyone loved watching the seal clap after each trick he
performed. Tyler, Zach and Josh had fun imitating his funny, barking
noises.
The acrobatic
troupe was next. Their tumbling and flipping routines had the crowd
cheering. Jimmy was enjoying
his place of honor, but was really tickled
when the driver told him he would have a chance to watch the entire parade
pass him as each act entered the big top circus tent.
A majestic lion
with all his marvelous mane was in the last wagon. He was so-o-o-o big,
and his roar was so-o-o loud that Jimmy could hear him from the very front of
the parade. The mild-mannered monkeys on top of his cage did not seem at
all frightened of the ferocious feline.
The fire truck
stopped at the entrance of the big top circus tent.
Jimmy talked to the
circus stars as they went inside. It made him feel like an important
star to be so close to them. Then Jimmy joined
Tyler, Zach and Josh in
his special section inside the tent.
When the circus
was over, Jimmy was escorted outside by the mayor and the ringmaster.
Jimmy did not want this special day to end. As
he turned to look one
last time, some performers were waving goodbye. Jimmy waved back and
smiled, for he knew he would never forget the day
he led THE BIG PARADE!
