Isabel Jones is a normal 14-year old girl who struggles as the Great Depression keeps approaching America. It is especially hard after losing her mother recently as she tries to help her father sell wood in the nearest town, Akron Ohio. Life is difficult and uneasy until one day her father (Daniel Jones) who goes by Mr.Jones wins a pair of tickets to the world's most amazing still traveling circus despite the Depression in Cleaveland, Ohio. Isabel was never fond of clowns and freaks until she meets an unusual freak that stands out to her out of all of the performers. Hugo Horvart was never a cheese boy until he was cursed into one and was f****d into working with the circus and its evil owner known as Mr.Munink. Isabel meets Hugo at the circus and she agrees to help him find the "clock-maker" who can be able to get rid of his curse using time and she can use to bring her mother back. The outcomes and adventures are yet from small as they try to discover the true meaning of life.
