Format:Paperback
A useful collection of puzzles and tricks suitable for many different age ranges, from primary school to adult audiences. Apart from cards, dice and calendars, very few props are required, and with a bit of creativity many of the tricks can be adapted to make them suitable for sharing on paper with small groups of students. Several items will be familiar to readers of Ian Stewart and Martin Gardner, but even here Fulves' notes on presentation are useful. I bought this book hoping to find some activities to engage struggling key stage 3 students with numbers, and I've found 30 or so fascinating items which I believe are suitable. Excellent value for money.

You may think that number magic will have no effect on enaybody but with this simple book you will be proved wrong. this book will make your audience think that you havce super powers or something. The book itself is very well written with lots of diagrams that are simple to understand. The only reeason that I gave this book 4 Stars is because the number tricks do take a bit of time to get the hang of but once you have learnt these tricks, they will come to you as a gift. Members of the audience will be amazed so I would buy this book If I were you!

This is great for any number lover. I put on a little magic show for my nine year old nephew at his birthday party - the boys had big fun and so did I.

If you see a book written by Karl Fulves on magic that has the words Self-Working in the title then buy it. There is a wealth of knowledge in each of these books. -Diamond Jim Tyler
