Cirque Du Freak

by Kevin Benda

This book is about two best freinds, Darren and Steve. Steve finds a flyer for a show called Cirque de Freak. Steve buys the tickets for him and Darren. Both of the boys get to this old building. Darren isnt sure he wants to go into the building. Steve finally convinces Darren that it is safe, but when they get into the building they start walking to the light, they bump into a big, tall, ugly man. His name is Mr Tall and he is part of the freak show. He is the tallest man in the world. The boys are lucky because Mr Tall is the host for this event. Mr Tall gave Steve and Darron the best seats in the house.



When the show starts they brought out the first act. The wolf man! After the wolfmans act was over they brought out a vampire named Mr. Crepsley and his pet spider, Madam Octa. Steve already knows what Mr.Crepsley is. Darren doesn't seem to notice because he is hypotized by the spider. When the show was over Steve tells Darren to go on without him. When Steve walks back into the room, Darren goes to the balcony to spy on him. Darren was shocked to see what happend. I would reccomend this book.
