Description

The funfair is in town! Tess, Finn, Asha and Rav can't wait to go on all the rides. But when one of them goes missing, will the day be ruined? Co-author is Charlotte Guillain.

Quick Summary

When the bright lights of the traveling carnival roll into town, four eager kids Tess, Finn, Asha, and Rav can barely contain their excitement. Just as they're about to hop on their favorite ride, one of them vanishes, turning a day of sugar-spun treats into a mini-mystery that needs solving. The friends quickly team up, following clues like a forgotten ticket stub and a stray balloon, using their wits and a dash of bravery to track down the missing friend before the rides close. At only 921 words with short chapters, the story moves at a brisk pace, making it perfect for early readers who want a quick adventure without a long commitment. Kids who love the rush of a carnival, gentle puzzles, or stories where teamwork saves the day will find a lot to love, and even reluctant readers often get pulled in by the fast-moving plot. Parents can rest easy knowing the tension is mild and resolved happily, with a clear message about staying together and looking out for each other. If your child enjoys the mix of excitement and problem-solving in "The Haunted Library" or the cozy friendships in "Frog and Toad Are Friends," this quick carnival adventure will feel right up their alley.
