With new full-color illustrations, Rose Wyler and Gerald Ames reveal magic's tricky secrets to young would-be wizards. Humorous pictures and an easy-to-follow text make magic simple and fun, even for beginners. From the I Can Read series.
Neither Arely or I have any interest in magic tricks, so reading this was like reading an instruction manual that you aren't going to use. It was so boring, technical and dry and felt really long.
Bizarre layout - text is structured like poetry for no apparent reason - but the illustrations are cute and surprisingly diverse for their time, and the magic tricks delighted me as a kid.
Accelerated Reader Level 2.9 My boys loved this book. From a kids point of view it may get a five. It is not one you would sit down to read with your children. But for those who can read they would enjoy trying the magic tricks.
This book is okay. At the beginning students would read about and "see" tricks. The end of the book teaches students how to do their own magic tricks. Students might enjoy this book.
