RED TOPSTAIN, BACVK TOP DJSMALL FOX STAIN LISTS RAINBOW CLASSICS AN OLD FAShIONED GIRL THRU 20,000 LEAGUES, 239 PGS ,(5 3/4" wide by 8 1/2" tall) Tells the story of a ten-year-old orphan who runs away from a foster home to join the traveling circus only to discover his new employer is a cruel taskmaster. The difference between the romance of the circus from the outside and the reality as seen from the inside is depicted. Toby's friend, Mr. Stubbs the chimpanzee, reinforces the consequences of what happens when one follows one's natural instincts rather than one's intellect and conscience, a central theme of the novel.
