Every collection starts with a question.
Collectors remember the moment: a trick performed, and a young mind asking how. A good magic book for kids ages 6-12 meets that moment with a clear answer and respect for the craft, and this one was written for exactly that.
A first shelf of magic knowledge
Short answers and pictures give a young reader a way in, without walls of text.
Respect for the craft
The book explains the ideas behind magic, such as misdirection and practice, and closes on a promise to keep the secrets and respect the craft.
A gift with staying power
A book a young reader opens twice, and one a collector is glad to have given.
So what if the questions kids ask most about magic each had their own illustrated page?
