Beschreibung des Verlags
Does size matter? Is bigger better? That's no small question to Tom Little-the circus midget with giant dreams. Tom may be king of the midgets, but he's got far grander ambitions-to become the muscleman at the top, the ringmaster. Now, drawing on some dark ancient secrets and mystic texts, he's about to get his wish.... Assuming another man's identity, Tom discovers he must also take on his sins, debts, and enemies. He may be living large-but now there are those who want to make him pay for the big man's sins.
Also includes "The Last Drop," an astounding tale of a New York bartender who mixes some very magical drinks-to amazing effect. The circus is coming to town, as If I Were You puts you in the center ring of the magic, mystery, and madness.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Hubbard's 1940 fantasy tale centers on a circus dwarf named Little Tom Little who becomes obsessed with the idea of swapping bodies with the circus's larger-than-life chief. This fantastic production features a large supporting cast of readers, sound effects and a variety of brilliant voices provided by The Simpsons' Nancy Cartwright. The only downside is that Little Tom Little bears a striking resemblance to Bart Simpson, so much so that the entire story is jeopardized because audiences will be hard pressed not to see a Simpsons episode playing out in their minds. As talented as Cartwright is, especially in voicing child characters, one would have expected her to come up with a more original voice. A Galaxy Press paperback.
