Ten year old Ivy lives in a small, quiet town where not much happens. That is until the Halibuts move in next door. You see, the Haibuts are circus people. Certainly not the kind of people the townsfolk will welcome with open arms. Then Elmira the Snake Lady moved into town. After that, the whole family of Flying Gambinis moved in.
