Funny Background Event: The end of the book has Sneelock standing off to the side as Morris finishes his musings about his circus, looking rather perturbed at what the boy expects him to do.

Spiritual Successor: It resembles If I Ran the Zoo, both being about young boys contemplating having their own entertainment venues and what they would do with them.

comment
Imagine Spot: The entire book consists of Morris' imagination running wild as he thinks about all the things he could do if he had the room to set up a circus of his own.

Running Gag
 If I Ran the Circus / int_f9f2c33
comment
Running Gag: Morris says repeatedly that of course Mr. Sneelock won't mind the circus coming together in the formerly vacant lot behind his store. Morris refers to Mr. Sneelock as a friend and says that he is certain Sneelock will help out with his plans for the circus, and of course he won't mind doing some unpleasant or risky stuff.
