This book is appropriate for ages 9 to 12 years. Mystify your friends and family with a repertoire of amazing tricks that will keep 'em guessing. Let magician Ron Burgess show you the "how-to's" of being a great magician! Put the three basic rules of magic to use for immediate success to: choose and make your perfect wand (your choice of wand can make or break you as a magician!); perform using "magician speak" as you keep the "patter" going to distract your audience from your magical manoeuvres; master a complete repertoire of over 30 fool-proof magicians favourites - tricks with money, scarves, rope or playing cards; tricks with household items, like spoons, rubber bands, or drinking glasses; trick using special, easy-to-make props so you can make items - or a person - vanish before the audience's very eyes!
