Howard Roger Garis also wrote under the pen name of Victor Appleton for the Stratemeyer Syndicate. He was the writer of many novels in the Tom Swift series and other Stratemeyer series including Uncle Wiggily, Buddy Boy, and Dick Hamilton. Tuftoo is a marionette, a wooden doll with a smiling face and a suit of many-colored silk. He has a happy time of it traveling in a puppet show with kindly player-people and other marionettes like himself. When Tuftoo gets lost out of the big caravan and Molla and Dick find him, the story really begins. The children take to the little marionette from the first, and through him they come to play in the puppet show themselves. They learn to work the fascinating marionettes and have wonderful adventures traveling from town to town. In Tuftoo the Clown, Garis has written a charming story, one that gives boys and girls a truthful picture of life in a puppet show.
