Goodreads asked Julia Webb:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Julia Webb I was interested in exploring the way that people (especially children and families) relate to each other. One of the sequences in the book was inspired by a book of paintings and photos of early American circuses. Some of the paintings were quite odd - this inspired me to write about a family relationship using circus as the theme.
