The Runaway Clown — Lois Walfrid Johnson

The circus Big Top was coming with the most daring act ever performed…and a lot of trouble!

Kate, Anders, and Erick had been the first to see the huge colorful poster that boldly proclaimed that the circus was coming to River Falls, Wisconsin. “Rare Wild Animals, Three Big Rings, Two Gigantic Shows Daily, Free Street Parade.” Just the sight of majestic circus animals on the poster was a thrill!

What a greater delight it is when the kids discover that the whole Nordstrom family is going to the circus! And staying with Kate's best friend from Minneapolis! And that Michael Reilly, Kate's childhood sweetheart, will be coming, too!

But behind all the excitement lurks the dark news of accidents that have followed one of the circus stars, the Great Roberto. Why is someone trying to hurt him?

CAN KATE AND ANDERS UNLOCK THE MSYTERY?
