Summary:

Amelia is a little monkey who wants to be a trapeze artist in Genovevo’s circus. However, luck is not on her side: she is too small, too weak, she doesn’t have the right costume and she can’t read or write and so she can’t sign the contract. Will Amelia fulfil her wish?

Comment:

This book describes sexist obstacles any woman can have, but also the main character’s struggle and determination to change her destiny. Amelia will prove that any woman can achieve what she wants.
