Customer Reviews

A wonderful resource book for children.

I am a clown and I train young people age 10 to 15 to be clowns. I use this book as a text book for my clown training course. It gives many wonderful ideas and has simple to follow directions. This books covers the history of clowning, costumes, makeup, juggling, mime, props, and types of clowns. It is a wonderful first book for children who want to become clowns.

Excellent reference

As a clown I have recommended this book many times to children that show an interest in becoming a clown. The illustrations are very clear, the ideas are doable and gives a real feel for being a clown. A good beginning book for clowns of all ages.
