Description
A middle-grade novel for fans of boarding school stories--with a dash of The Mysterious Benedict Society and a splash of Circus Mirandus!
Sebastian Konstantinov comes from a long line of talented circus performers. Somehow, however, he has not inherited any of their acrobatic skill: he has no balance, hes afraid of heights, he cant even turn a somersault. But theres one thing he does know: his fathers circus, which travels through Eastern Europe, is out of date and is fast running out of money.
Seb has a solution, though: if he can somehow get into the Bonaventure Circus School in Montreal, Canada, he might be able to learn something valuable to help his father. Seb secretly writes to the Directrice (an old friend of his fathers) and is accepted into the school. All he has to do is convince his father to send him away -- oh, and keep his lack of talent a secret from all his teachers and classmates. Fortunately for him, he befriends two other students, who also dont seem to quite fit in.
Seb is not the only one with secrets, it turns out. The school is literally crumbling beneath the feet of its students, and the directrice may be counting on Sebs "talent" to save the day. Can he and his new friends figure out whats really going on in the school that bills itself as the Worlds Best Circus School?
