Billy Whiskers at the Circus

In this children's story, Billy Whiskers, the big white bearded Billy Goat who lives at Clover leaf Farm, has an adventure at the circus when it comes to town. There, he encounters many strange animals and people that he has never seen before. He is also the subject of a kidnapping attempt, but manages to get away with the help of the monkeys who have become his friends.
