Description
Open the card and peek through the curtains to see a silly circus clown dressed in a red and black harlequin suit with a white neck ruff.
He is balancing a unicycle on a high wire while holding up a sign that says HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
The stage lights are projecting stars and polka dots on the circus floor.

Circus clown book:
Chipper and the Unicycle. The story book finds the eager young clown, Chipper, traveling the world in search of a new act to keep the crowds entertained…a unicycle seems like just the thing! He figures he can learn to ride the unicycle with no trouble at all, since he already can ride a bicycle. How hard could it be? But it’s hard. After only one day of trying, Chipper takes the unicycle back to the store in frustration. He learns that you have to work long and hard to make something look easy, but it’s worth the effort! In the end, Chipper understands that some pursuits take time and effort to master, and he learns the importance of perseverance.
This is the perfect birthday celebration or birthday invitation, and fun for a baby shower or business anniversary.
