SUSAN K MARLOW

The summer after Andi Carter turns nine the circus comes to town. She can't wait to get into line to see the elephants, acrobats, and - most of all-the champion bareback rider. What could be more thrilling than riding your very own horse under the big top?

When the Carters see the show, Andi meets Henry Jackson, a small boy selling concessions. Andi thinks he must have the perfect job-hanging out with happy clowns, exotic animals, and excited visitors. But it's not all fun and games. Henry shares his secret with Andi: he had run away to join the circus, but now he is trapped! Will Andi help Henry get free, even if it may mean losing something very special to her?
