Angel is excited when she joins her grandad and his small travelling show for the first time, especially when she sees a dancing goat appearing from a wooden box as if by magic. But later Angel worries about the goat encased in the box. She takes a peep through one of the tiny airholes, and tumbles into another world - the world of her family's past . . .
Michael Foreman's haunting book is a celebration of family, of continuity, of wonder and of the humanity which links the generations.
