Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 3-5?How-to books about magic and sleight of hand tricks abound. But a magician is also an entertainer, which requires skill, planning, and practice. In this simple, straightforward presentation, Eldin offers tips on making a costume, putting an act together, patter, and 15 easy tricks. Full-color photographs and step-by-step explanations in a bright theatrical format make this book an appealing addition for beginning performers.?Pamela K.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great starter magic book for kids, May 1, 2001
By 
Martin P Shaw (Sheridan, OR United States) - See all my reviews
If you are looking for an easy to read and understand book which will enthrall your child, give him or her confidence, and even enable your child to present a magic show, this is what you are looking for. It's great for rainy days when you don't want your child glued to the TV, but can't think of anything else for them to do. This is a good, simple, well illustrated book for children who want to learn some basics about magic. The tricks are simple to do and understand, yet other children (and adults) can be entertained and even mystified as to how the tricks are done. This book also describes the basics of showmanship. The illustrations are helpful for the young reader.
