Book Description
It's a box full of tricks that will amaze, amuse, and mystify friends and family. Kids can stage their own magic show and perform stunning tricks, most of them simplified versions of magic devised by more than a dozen famous magicians including Robert-Houdin, Joesph Dunninger, Houdini, David Copperfield, and Robert Selbit, the first magician to "saw a woman in half." An enclosed 48-page color-illustrated book, The World of Magic, is filled with instructions for performing the tricks, as well as an entertaining history of magic and magicians, and advice on how to learn magic and present tricks to an audience. Most tricks are described and shown in two-page spreads. Among them are:The Knot That's Not—a knot that disappears when you blow on itOne in the Pocket—paper balls that jump out of the pocket and into the performer's handThere's Money In It—a coin that comes magically out of a bread rollThe Miser's Dream—how to make coins materialize from thin airNimble Thimbles—a thimble passes through the fabric of a handkerchief without making a holeThere are also card tricks, mind-reading tricks, comedy tricks, and much more.
