Step right up! Shank's Impossible Circus is back in town in this "utterly madcap adventure of sabotage and adventure" (The Guardian) from bestselling author William Sutcliffe.Get ready for more wonderfully bizarre antics because Shank's Impossible Circus is back...
There are 7,362 things that Armitage Shank hates and at the top of the list (which includes puppies, rainbows, and lifts) is being made a fool of. So, when he thinks his old nemesis, Queenie Bombazine, ringmaster of Bombazine's Ecstatic Aquatic Splashtastic Circus, is trying to do just that, he sets out on a revenge rampage! Meanwhile, a HUGE revelation sends Hannah and Granny on their own journey to find Queenie-but it's only a matter of time before they all collide...
Filled with slapstick humor and clever word-play, this hilariously wacky and fun adventure is a must for fans of Andy Stanton, David Walliams, and Roald Dahl.
