Trick Rider

Little Else #1

by Julie Hunt, Beth Norling (Illustrator)

Little Else has joined Ma Calico's circus and she's a big hit! But will her hard work pay off with mean Ma Calico in charge?

When Little Else joins Ma Calico's Bush Circus, she becomes La Petite Elsié and does leaps and lofty tumbles with Joe, The Flying Giuseppe. The crowds love them! But mean Ma Calico won't pay them a penny. The circus horses are sick of hauling Ma around the country, and the other performers want Little Else to stand up to her. So Little Else decides to track down the wild bushranger Harry Blast. Would he be a match for Ma?

Julie Hunt has written poetry and performed with the Kazakstan Kowgerls. When she wrote Little Else: Trick Rider, she discovered that one book didn’t have enough room for this daring little heroine who left home with just a lucky horseshoe nail and the ability to talk to horses.
