About the Book

In a little town, called Cherryville, lived a happy and loving trio of friends; Squiggly, the squirrel, Robert, the rabbit, and Tommy the turtle. Life was so sweet for the trio and would have continued to be so if it were not for a nasty old fox, Freddy. It seemed that Freddy was extremely jealous of everything the 'three friends' did. The way they played together, had fun together, and just plain got along together.

But when the 'three friends' fulfilled their lifelong dream of joining the Circus, Freddy became furious. And moreover, when the 'three friends' were so successful that they became the STARS of the Circus, Freddy could no longer stand idly by. He devised a plan that would prevent the 'three friends" from performing their acts, thereby embarrassing them, so that they would have to quit the Circus.

However, when Freddy's cruel plan was put into action it seemed that it would have a much greater impact than even Freddy expected; it would cause the entire Circus to shut down. Now with the help of Barnacles, the Pirate's parrot, and two security guards, Freddy's evil deed was reversed and the Circus story has a very remarkable but happy ending.
