Enter a world most outsiders never see: carnival sideshow! In its secret world, with its own language and set of rules, meet Tony. Not yet 15 years old, he travels the country as part of the carnival sideshow owned by his father, Charlie. Dubbed 'The Clown Prince of the Sideshow' by the other carnies, and with cheering crowds, endless adventure, and thrills at every turn, Tony's life may seem like a dream. This fast-paced read is dynamic and gripping, perfect for teen readers who want all the characteristics of a long novel, dealing with teenage issues and tough topics, in a strong, condensed book. From a series written by some amazing authors, this book is everything a reluctant reader would want to get them engaged. Note: this book contains some strong language, graphic scenes and/or tough topics, so is only suitable for older YA readers.
