Step right up! Welcome to the greatest little show on Earth! The Amazing Pop-Up Science Flea Circus is an absolutely amazing interactive book where imaginary fleas perform death-defying stunts, including "The Living Cannonball," "The Dive of Death," and the "Tightrope Walk of Fear." Even though this is a performance book for children, it will amaze friends and family alike with six mind-boggling acts and dozens of scientific facts guaranteed to make readers swoon. Created in consultation with The Science Museum, London, this wacky book will make viewers will gasp as the tiny flea trapeze artists swing and summersault through the air; thrill as the diving water flea defies the odds on the Dive of Death; be amazed by the courage of the living cannonball; and be horrified by the world's scariest light show with giant magnified bugs!

Chee is the youngest member of the Zee family of circus fleas. They are hoping to put on a fabulous circus show tonight for all the local bugs, but their practice isn't going well. What will happen when the lights go on under the big top?
