Diamond wasn't always a star. Born to penniless parents who longed for a strong, healthy son, she was a dainty, delicate daughter and a bitter disappointment. Discovering an extraordinary gift for acrobatics, Diamond uses her talent to earn a few pennies, but brings shame on her family. When a mysterious, cruel-eyed stranger spots her performing, Diamond is sold and is taken to become an acrobat at Tanglefield's Travelling Circus. The crowds adore Diamond, but life behind the velvet curtains is far from glamorous. Her wicked master forces Diamond to attempt ever more daring tricks, until she is terrified to step into the ring.

This is another book of the Hetty Feather series, and I also LOVED this book. But, this is told by a little girl called Diamond, and written by Hetty Feather, while Diamond is talking. ( I hope that makes sense. ), but I absolutely loved this. This was an entirely different story to Hetty Feather's, but the fact that they meet each other.
