EDITORS COMMENTS
Step Right Up: A Little Girl's Unconventional Classroom in the 1960s Circus This charming photograph captures a moment of innocence and wonder from a bygone era. Circa 1960s, a little girl, dressed in a simple blue dress and white shoes, stands confidently before a blackboard on an easel in a grassy field. Around her, a group of curious elephants, with their large, expressive eyes and long, wrinkled ears, gather curiously, as if eager to learn. In the background, a colorful circus tent and a red-and-white striped van add to the whimsical scene. The girl, with a determined look on her face, points to the equations written on the blackboard with a long, wooden pointer. Her expression suggests that she is teaching the elephants the intricacies of mathematics. The elephants, with their trunks raised and their ears flapping, seem to be giving their full attention to the lesson. This delightful scene, filled with humor and a touch of the comic, invites us to imagine the extraordinary bond between the girl and her animal students. The photograph transports us back to a time when the circus was a source of wonder and excitement for children and adults alike. It also highlights the unique way in which children, even in the most unconventional settings, can find joy and meaning in their interactions with animals. This image offers a glimpse into a magical moment in the history of childhood, where the lines between education and entertainment blurred, and the impossible became possible.
