Magic the will amaze kids as well adults
9 Jan 2000
Format:Hardcover
Let me start out by saying I am a professional magician that has been in the business for over twenty years. So I have seen my share of magic books good and bad. The Magic Show book is easily the best book I have seen for kids as well for adult in over 15 years. Actually I have never seen and magic book as well illustrated as this one..kudos to Steve Ellis. What I loved about the book is that each amazingly rendered page hypnotically leads to the next trick, like a magic story. Then after the last trick in the book fools you, you'll rush to show the book to your friends, so you can start from the begining. Also what I love about the book is that its a great book for kids to bring with them on a long trip in the car or waiting at the airport. I only wished I had a book like this when I started out as a magician. The tricks inside even fooled me (but please don't let other magicians know that). Sincerly C. Polaris

It's not just a book--it's a show!
24 Nov 1999
Format:Hardcover
This is a first. This book is a prop that lets you do a magic show for yourself. You'd think that if you're doing the magic show it would be pretty tough to fool yourself. You'd be suprised. As you turn the beautiful pages of this graphic masterpiece of a book and follow the directions, you can't believe the miracles you're seeing. And then once you've performed the book for yourself you can use it on a completely different level to fool yool your friends. This is perfect for almost any age, anybody who likes magic, or really interesting pop-up-type art books. Simply terrific.

Great Fun for all ages
8 Dec 1999
Format:Hardcover
This is possibly the most innovative,unique, fun book I have ever seen. The book is a self performing magic show that will completely baffle and intrigue you. Guaranteed to cause a sleepless night trying to figure out these tricks. The layout, graphics and pop-up features add a marvelous dimension. I would highly recommend this book as a gift for either child or adult. You don't have to be a magic fan to enjoy it!Congratulations to authors Mark Setteducati and Anne Benkovitz for giving us something different to cheer about!
