K-Gr 4 The Bola family consists of small, chubby, gray creatures with 16 legs apiece. They live in the basement of a noisy theater-cabaret where they have plenty of space. Because they are unattractive, they use wigs, wear makeup, and dress in colorful clothes. But the most extraordinary thing about the Bolas is their ability to roll into a ball. Through the years, the little animals have learned to act and entertain. So in an empty theater box, the Bolas put on their own show, El Gran Teatro Varieti&3;s , where they perform and are eventually discovered by a flea agent that takes them on a world tour. From the moment youngsters pick up this fun read, they will be captivated by it and by the colorful and detailed illustrations. A great selection for storytime.
