Each Fizzlebert Stump book is a whole complete story that can be read and enjoyed all by itself, although the best way to read them is in order!

4: Fizzlebert Stump and the Girl Who Lifted Quite Heavy Things

It's the great Circus of Circuses competition, and Fizzlebert Stump has no act. He's got a best friend with a problem, a new friend with a secret, an old rival with a grudge, and a sea lion with a thing about fish. But... no act.

Can Fizz find a way to perform on the night? Can the Bearded Boy find his long-lost parents? And can Alice, a professional flower-arranger and secret Strongwoman, find her rightful place in the circus?

A story of friendship, rivalry, amnesia, and the identification of oddly-shaped vegetables.

Illustrated throughout by Sarah Horne.
