This is a fun and exciting read for cat lovers. And if you're not a cat lover, you will be by the time you finish "Hugo's Cat Circus." Once a year, Hugo holds a secret cat circus and all the cats of Marseilles, France gather to watch the greatest show on earth. The performers are all different breeds of cats illustrated with great style by Maggie Swanson. It's evident that Swanson must be a cat lover, because her cats are so full of personality.  The story by Julia Dweck is a humorous rhyming read with clever puns that will make you smile along with your child. There's loads of exciting feline fun, including trapeze artists, jugglers, circus clowns, cannon ball divers, and even knife throwers. My favorite were the Main Coon singing trio. This is an adorably delightful read.
