    About this audiobook

    It's a mystery every month from popular A to Z Mysteries author Ron Roy! With the younger siblings of the A to Z Mysteries kids!

    August is for Acrobat...

    In the eighth book of the Calendar Mysteries - an early chapter book mystery series - something special is coming to Green Lawn - a traveling circus! But when the performers arrive, they need help. Their show is a mess, and Bradley, Brian, Nate, and Lucy are happy to chip in. They fix up the equipment and find dazzling new acts, but what the show needs most is an acrobat. No one in town is brave enough to go up on the high trapeze, except for one mysterious masked person. If the kids could find out who it is, this might be the best circus ever - but it seems as if this acrobat doesn't want to be found!

    Parents, teachers, and librarians agree that these highly collectible chapter books are perfect for emerging readers and any kid who loves mysteries!

      Pretty darn cute! I surely did not solve the mystery, but when it was revealed, it made sense, and I could have done so. I want to live in that town, Green Lawn, it's so friendly and nice, but not, imo, a creepy or stultifying way.

      I love how the kids who grew up with the circus basically want to 'run away' to live in a normal, stable community.
