After the circus has left town, children reflect back on what all they saw while the circus was in town. Their memories include everything from the elephants raising the big top tent to all acts they saw performed inside the three big rings. They recall the lions roaring, the bears on bicycles, along with the trapeze artist and girls doing stunts on galloping horses. They remember the smell of popcorn and hot dogs along with the complete circus atmosphere. But memories are all they have now that The Circus Has Left Town.
