Editorial Reviews

Review

"Simple written directions and clear illustrations make it easy to understand each step." -- Boise Family


Product Description

Using everyday items found in most homes, aspiring young magicians can dazzle friends and family with this guide to performing magic tricks. In the activities detailed, items disappear, water refuses to leave a container, and magicians make partners disappear (and reappear). Each activity includes step-by-step directions and illustrations followed by an explanation of how the trick works. The scientific principles and mathematical concepts behind these tricks are valuable teaching tools for elementary and special education instructors.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Learning Tool, January 6, 2009
By V. Sommers "Ronni" (Deltona Florida) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I purchased this book for my 10 year old grandson who is getting more involved in "magic" since he's been 9 years old. He was quite thrilled with the gift which was one of his Christmas presents and pretty much ignored his other gifts after he opened this book...he just sat there enthralled reading it. I highly reccommend it !
