This book comes with all the plastic pieces, paper parts, and special pages you need to experience 25 impossible things. These objects work like magic, but there are no tricks. All this weirdness has a solid scientific basis and we tell you why - from the mathematically amazing Mobius strip (a band of paper with only one side), to cardstock acrobats with amazing balance, to a color changing spinning top.

I really liked this book, but my grandson (9) had other ideas. He didn't seem interested at all. Wrong choice for him, but it is a great book that is fun and educational. Great to use with a pal.
I bought this for when my 6-year-old grandson was going to stay with us for a week. We had several great play sessions and didn't get through everything in the kit. My favorite part is that the book shows you what to do but doesn't show you how most of the experiments are going to turn out -- you have to do the experiment to find out what happens. Then it gives you a good scientific explanation for the results you've gotten.
This book may be better for kids a little older than six. My grandson had trouble doing some of the tricks; I had to do them while he watched. But it's great fun for teens and adults, too.
I was disappointed with this. I got it for my 9 year old granddaughter. Some of the projects in the book work well and were fun, but there were a lot that fell short of expectations. She needed help with all of them, fortunately I was there to help, but it could be a pain if an adult was not available to spend the time needed.
My 10 year old thinks he's a magician (he's definitely an amateur) I got him this book for his birthday and he immediately started showing me the illusions. He's totally into it! It has hours of activities. Makes a great gift!
Based on feedback from others, my daughter and I had high expectations for this book. Unfortunately, many of the tricks we had already known about. There was nothing really new or impressive here. So sad!
Love this birthday present! It was a great hit! It has a vast array of illusions too. Hours of fun! Makes you think too. I got it for my 9 yr old. He is still playing with it months later.
