Dido, the Dancing Bear: His Many Adventures

Dido the Dancing Bear His Many Adventures - Richard Barnum

One of the Kneetime Animal Stories for children, Dido the Dancing Bear may seem unethical today, but when it was written in 1916, such spectacles were a relatively common and "harmless" entertainment, In this story, we follow Dido as he is caught, trained and put in a circus. Along the way, he meets several other animals from the series. - Summary by Lynne Thompson Richard Barnum is a pseudonym of the Stratemeyer Syndicate, which mass-produced children's books.
