Kids Make Magic - The Complete Guide to Becoming an Amazing Magician (Paperback, illustrated edition)

- The three basic rules of magic. (Can't tell you here, because "It's magic!")
- Different types of wands to make and use. In the world of magic (and Harry Potter!), your choice of wand can make or break you as a magician!
- Beyond "Hocus-pocus" and "Abracadabra." Master official magician-speak, learning new magic terminology and ways to keep the "patter" going.
- Developing your act: Deciding your magician "type" (casual, formal, clown-around), choosing your tricks, and framing your act.
- And of course, a complete repertoire of foolproof magicians' favorites: tricks with money, scarves, rope, or cards; tricks with household items, like a spoon or a glass; tricks using homemade props so you can make someone suddenly disappear (and then reappear) in a large empty carton, or make items vanish before the audience's very eyes!
