Mr. Cannelloni's Circus
Mr. Cannelloni’s circus has been operating for generations—ever since his great-grandfather started it one hundred years ago. But with ticket sales dropping and the circus equipment falling into disrepair, the future of Cannelloni’s Circus looks bleak, especially when a strict special inspector arrives to look things over. Luckily Mr. Cannelloni’s wife, Rosita—once a daring tightrope walker—has some new bold stunts in mind. With the help of a snake woman, a strongman, daredevil horsemen, and other circus performers, Rosita launches “Operation Hannibal.” Will her risky rescue plan be enough to save Mr. Cannelloni’s Circus?

Boris was in an excellent mood, however. The circus guests<br />
were delightful, and he was being served delicious food<br />
for a change. But there was a small glitch in his promise to<br />
help Rosita. His assistant, Emilio, had found a clause in the<br />
contract between the singer and the opera house—it forbade<br />
him to perform solo anywhere besides the opera house for<br />
the entire summer.<br />
The opera star had called his lawyer across the ocean<br />
and received some useful advice. If Boris performed with<br />
someone else, rather than solo, there was no breach of<br />
contract. Immediately the search began for a suitable singing<br />
partner for him from among the circus crew. The performance<br />
was scheduled to take place in just two days—this<br />
partner would have to be found fast.<br />
