"Leo the Circus Boy; or, Life under the Great White Canvas" by Edward Stratemeyer is a children's novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows a young boy named Leo Dunbar who, after escaping from a harsh farm life under the care of Daniel Hawkins, ends up in the circus world, filled with excitement, danger, and adventure. As a talented gymnast, Leo aims to make a name for himself in the circus while navigating the challenges posed by his past. At the start of the book, Leo is introduced as a daring and agile boy who finds himself in conflict with the miserly Hawkins family, where he works after losing his parents. The opening chapter captures a pivotal moment when Leo's exceptional agility saves him from an imminent beating. Just then, an escaped lion from a nearby circus disrupts the scene, leading Leo to heroically capture the lion, showcasing his bravery and acrobatics. This thrilling encounter sets the stage for Leo's journey into the world of the circus as he seeks freedom and adventure while confronting the complexities of his past.
