Rory Sparkes dreams of adventure—becoming a circus strongman or a cowboy. But for now, he'd settle for skipping maths and fixing his torch. When he and his best friend, Guy, scheme to buy a model boat to sail to South America, the arrival of a circus turns their plans upside down. With odd jobs for the formidable Madame Lowe and his sister Clare's mischievous pranks, can Rory navigate the chaos and achieve his dreams?
