Fizzlebert Stump and the Girl Who Lifted Quite Heavy Things Summary

Fizzlebert Stump and the Girl Who Lifted Quite Heavy Things by A.F. Harrold

It's the great Circus of Circuses competition, and Fizzlebert Stump has no act. He's no longer the Boy Who Puts His Head In The Lion's Mouth (the lion retired) and putting his head in a crocodile's mouth instead didn't work out for some reason. Can Fizz find a new act in time? Can the Bearded Boy find his long-lost parents? And can their new friend Alice, professional flower-arranger and secret Strongwoman, find her rightful place in the circus? A story of circus rivalry, learning who you really are, and the problem of oddly-shaped vegetables. Brilliantly bonkers and perfect for fans of Mr Gum and Lemony Snicket.

Fizzlebert Stump and the Girl Who Lifted Quite Heavy Things Reviews

I enjoyed this book because it has so many unexpected twists that you never quite know what is going to happen next. Also, there are many ingenious characters who made me laugh. My favourite was the toad-like librarian. (Review of Fizzlebert Stump: the Boy Who Ran Away From the Circus (and joined the library) -- Lucy Minton, age 9 * Lovereading4kids *
This story really will draw you in. It is one of my favourite books that I have ever read and I have read a lot of books! (Review of Fizzlebert Stump: The Boy Who Ran Away From the Circus (and joined the library) -- Adam Graham age 9 * Lovereading4kids *

The author keeps the reader gripped by the way he ends each chapter, making you want to read on to find out what happens next. Even my mum enjoyed this book and I had to keep telling her what was happening to Fizzlebert and his friends. (Review of Fizzlebert Stump and the Bearded Boy.) -- Freya Hudson, age 10 * Lovereading4kids *
