Frank Flipper was an acrobat at a circus. He 

could do flips and tumbles... all of that. Plus he 

was as popular as a six year old could be.

Every night he would perform, make people 

laugh and smile, even give them a shock when 

he did big tricks.

But one night he did his act and when it was 

time to do the hardest trick he had ever tried, 

triple front shuffle grab, he fell and tumbled 

and twisted and fumbled.

Luckily there was a net to catch him, but he 

got off the net and saw everyone staring at 

him. He started to cry and ran all the way 

home.

“MUM! MUM! I NEVER WANT TO TRAPEZE 

AGAIN!” Frank screamed at his mum when he 

arrived home.

Frank’s mum gave him a big hug and said 

“Well then, you will have to practice so you 

don’t fall again. Frank said “OK,” and the next 

day he went back to the circus, got back up on 

the trapeze and kept trying to do the triple 

front side shuffle grab.

But every time he tried, he fell. He thought he 

would never make it.

That night it was time time to try and Frank 

thought to himself ‘Time to do this.'

He swung through the air one flip, two flips 

and then a third flip. He twisted and grabbed 

his ankle and.......

Frank looked around at all the people clapping 

and cheering. He finally spotted him mum 

clapping for him. 

“I could not have done it without you Mum,” 

Frank said. And then he said “I can’t wait for 

tomorrow!”
