The Jumbo Book of Magic Tricks

by Bob Longe

It must be magic--how else could so many exciting tricks fit into one handy, chunky book? Bob Longe, the creator of many successful collections of tricks, games, and stunts, offers plenty of bang for the buck with this fun volume. There's something to please every child eager to master some sleight-of-hand. With a little practice, and Longe's smart tips, kids can baffle spectators with a deck of cards by making everything come up aces--finding the aces someone has pulled out of the pack and mixed back in randomly. Coins will vanish in a flash to the amazement of all, and the most ordinary of items (dice, rope, handkerchiefs) become the source of some extraordinary mystification. What a show budding magicians will put on.
