F. Bam Morrison is selling tickets to Bohn's United Circus Shows, and the townspeople are buying--all, that is, except ol' man Swank, who says F. Bam Morrison is a two-faced weasel. Smitten with Morrison, ten-year-old Bobbie Jo Hailey--and mean Clara Jean Knox, whom she befriends--unwittingly joins the effort to bamboozle Wetumka. When Bobbie Jo realizes her mistake, Morrison is on his way out of town, leaving her disappointed but intact--and greatly enriched by her relationship with the flimflam man. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLovingly illustrated by Eileen Christelow, Darleen Bailey Beard's delightful story is based on a real episode in Wetumka's history, still celebrated annually as Sucker Day!\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDarleen Bailey Beard\u003c\/b\u003e, author of \u003ci\u003eTwister \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eThe Babbs Switch Story\u003c\/i\u003e, lives in Tuttle, Oklahoma. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eEileen Christelow\u003c\/b\u003e has written and\/or illustrated many books for children.
