Water for Elephants

I just finished reading Sara Gruen's "Water for Elephants" -- a fantastic story told from the point of view of an old man who ran away to join the circus....

She does a great job of telling a compelling story.

There's a great song about the same topic called "The Kid" that is covered by Cry Cry Cry (Richard Shindell, Lucy Kaplansky and Dar Williams), though I don't know the original performer. Always makes me want to run away with the circus myself...
