Dr. Carol and Aria Soloway teamed up to write The Surprise Circus, which has an important message – it’s never too early to be “hungry” – which caught the eye of one of America’s most influential motivational speakers Les Brown, who wrote the foreword to the book.

Les Brown said he was thrilled his message of self-confidence was being presented to children.

“The stories we tell our children are powerful, not only for them but for the world,” Mr Brown said. “It is my belief that children need to desire greatness; to be hungry for it and be willing to do whatever it takes to accomplish their goals.

“We need to empower our children to believe they can achieve their dreams- just like little Aria does in the book.”

The Surprise Circus is based on the character Aria, named after the young author, who uses her mom’s phone to call the ringmaster after the circus fails to come to town that year.

Week after week circus characters start turning up at her front door, including a strongman, juggler, fire eater, trapeze artist and dancing bear.

Dr. Soloway said the entire project from concept to completion took just 8 months, with local teen Olivia Targett also providing 27 original illustrations.

“We not only have a six-year-old author but a 15-year-old illustrator,” Dr. Soloway said.

“It just goes to show you what children truly are capable of when you give them the time, space and support, to think big and create.

“Instead of using the time in lockdown to binge watch Netflix, or let kids lose themselves on their screens; grab a book, inspire them, and teach them to be hungry!”

The Surprise Circus is currently available for preorder on Amazon.
