The Clown of God : An Old Story

---

"The Clown of God" is a retelling of a French-Italian legend by Tomie dePaola. It tells the story of Giovanni, a talented juggler, who travels from town to town performing. As he grows older and his fame fades, Giovanni ends up at a monastery where he performs one last time, giving his best to a statue of the Holy Child. Through his final act of devotion, Giovanni experiences a miraculous event. Tomie dePaola's beautiful illustrations and moving narrative bring this touching story of faith and generosity to life.
