Synopsis

A vibrant and enchanting debut novel about an orphan girl who discovers a magical circus, perfect for fans of Kelly Barnhill and Rebecca Stead!

Maddy Adriana knows that magic is real. All her life, her heart has pulled her towards things too perfect to be ordinary. One day, that tug leads her to a magical street circus, hidden in plain sight among the canals and boardwalks of Venice Beach.

For the first time in Maddy’s life, she finally feels like she belongs. But the circus is in grave danger. Maddy will need to confront the frightening side of magic, as well as her own deepest fears, if she’s to have any hope of saving the place she dreams of calling home.

This unforgettable debut shows readers the magic of following your heart and finding where you belong. 

What happens when the only place you’ve ever felt at home is about to disappear?

• An Urban Fantasy Adventure: Explore the sun-drenched boardwalks and hidden canals of Venice Beach, where a magical street circus performs wonders for those who know how to look.
• A Relatable Orphan Heroine: Join twelve-year-old Maddy Adriana, a girl who has spent her life searching for a place to belong, as she discovers a home worth fighting for.
• Mystery and Magic: Uncover the secrets of Maddy’s own past, from a silver bracelet that won’t come off to a mysterious heart condition that might be connected to the circus’s fading magic.
• Friendship and Courage: A heartwarming story about the courage it takes to face your fears and the power of finding friends who feel like family.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

In an alternate universe, Lori R. Snyder is a circus performer—probably an aerialist wearing a lot of glitter. In this universe, she’s had many different careers (none of which, sadly, are circus-related): marine biologist, fourth-grade teacher, dancer, yoga teacher and studio owner, book editor, and writer. Venice Beach is one of the great loves of her life, as are kindness, delight, and the sea, and The Circus at the End of the Sea is her love letter to all of those. Lori is also the founder of the Writers Happiness Movement, which offers free happiness tools to writers, at writershappiness.com.
