Circus Shoes

by Noel Streatfeild

When Peter and Santa are left with no one but their Uncle Gus—a travelling clown—life at the circus seems far better than the orphanage waiting for them.

But Gus makes one thing clear: they can stay only if they prove themselves. Life under the big top is no easy ride, and the children must work hard to earn their place in the spotlight. Can they find a true home among the performers, or will the circus move on without them?
