Jack and the Wanderers — Tracey West

Samurai Jack is Cartoon Network's newest hit from the creator of Dexter's Lab. Boys 6-11 love the show. Scholastic's line of original, 4/c chapter books capture the unique spirit of Jack's adventures.

When a circus fortune-teller warns Jack that he's in danger, the samurai is skeptical at first. After all, most circus people are known to be con artists. But then Jack finds himself pursued by a mysterious assassin. It seems the fortune-teller was right: Aku has sent five hunters to track him down and destroy him. Jack will need help escaping these huntsmen... but will it mean he has to join the circus?
