# If You Ever Want to Bring a Circus to the Library, Don't! - Hardcover

by **Elise Parsley** (Author)

**The third book in the bestselling Magnolia Says Don't! series, which started with _If You Ever Want to Bring an Alligator to School, Don't!_, is another loud and cautionary tale of what _not_ to do--this time, at the library!**

If you see a poster that says "You Can Do Anything at the Library!", it is NOT giving you permission to put on a circus! But Magnolia doesn't see any problem with setting up her own big top. She's got a lot of gusto and one mean human cannonball routine. So what if her greatest show on Earth won't fit between the bookshelves? Elise Parsley's boldly expressive illustrations perfectly complement this _mostly-_librarian-approved guide on how to be everything BUT quiet in the library!
