Summary "Little Orphan Annie, and Billy Miller's Circus-Show" by James Whitcomb Riley is a whimsical collection of children's poetry written in the late 19th century. The book features two charming tales that center around the characters of Little Orphan Annie, who tells enchanting stories and moral lessons to children, and Billy Miller, a boy who delights in the playful antics of a circus show. The poems capture the innocence and imagination of childhood, inviting readers into a world filled with fantasy and moral teachings. In "Little Orphan Annie," readers are introduced to the titular character who warns children of goblins and the importance of listening to their parents through engaging riddles and stories. The poem reflects on themes of obedience and empathy, highlighting the consequences of disobedience. In "Billy Miller's Circus-Show," the narrative showcases Billy's adventurous spirit as he transforms his old stable into a playground circus where he performs impressive acts and embodies various circus characters. Both stories celebrate the joy of childhood while imparting valuable life lessons, making the book an endearing read for children and adults alike. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
