The thrills and adventures of circus life continue for Jimmy and Lotta in this second book of the Galliano's Circus trilogy. Things take a dramatic turn when a troupe of tigers joins the circus. Jimmy is determined to sneak into the tigers' cage and befriend them, heedless of any warnings—and meanwhile, the tiger keeper's jealous son, Fric, nearly tears Jimmy and Lotta's friendship apart. Then, just when everything seems to have smoothed over again, Jimmy's beloved dog Lucky suddenly goes missing. Lotta sets out alone on a daring mission to find and rescue Lucky—but will she succeed? And with Lal and Laddo—her parents and fellow performers—still away, will she find a way to have her own turn in the circus ring again?
