(5 reviews)

Podkin One-Ear award-winning author Kieran Larwood has us travelling back in time to the Victorian age around Europe with this black-and-white middle grade adventure series. 

If you enjoy stories about found family, you will immediately love this unusual troupe of carnival performers. The group is made up of: Sheba the wolf girl, Pyewacket, a witch's imp; Gigantus the giant and Sister Moon, a knife thrower. Together, these friends uncover all sorts of mysteries like children's disappearances along the Thames River or go on daring rescue missions. This is the group of adventurous outcasts we all want to be part of. 

The series is a perfect next step after reading the A Series Of Unfortunate Events chapter books.
