Product Description: As a young man, Jacob Jankowski was tossed by fate onto a rickety train that was home to the Benzini Brothers Most Spectacular Show on Earth . It was the early part of the great Depression, and for Jacob, now ninety, the circus world he remembers was both his salvation and a living hell. A veterinary student just shy of a degree, he was put in charge of caring for the circus menagerie. It was there that he met Marlena, the beautiful equestrian star married to August, the charismatic but twisted animal trainer. And he met Rosie, an un-trainable elephant who was the great gray hope for this third-rate traveling show. The bond that grew among this unlikely trio was one of love and trust, and, ultimately, it was their only hope for survival.
Simplemente increible Una bella historia sin lugar a dudas, Agua para elefantes sigue la vida de un muchacho en un circo, ahora ya en un asilo de ansianos este va contando sus aventuras dentro de este nuevo y fascinante mundo.
Agua para Elefantes esta muy bien escrito y no será facil dejar de leerlo.
Disfruten.
Just magnificent!!! I loved the book. It was by far one of the greatest finds in the last years. It was funny, full of life and with an inocence that let you wanted more. Great book for everyone. Uno de los mejores libros que he leido en los ultimos tiempos. Tierno, emotivo, gracioso en momentos y lleno de una inocencia que nos transporta. Este libro es genial y esta escrito de una manera especial. No puedes dejar de leerlo
Absolutely delightful What a terrific find !! I am an avid reader and do not often find a book that I simply cannot put down, but this is one of them. Great story and so well written that you can almost SMELL what's going on. I sometimes read 3-4 books a week and rarely enjoy one as much as this. This book is for women AND men.
