Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Buy two!
Review: "The Magic Show" is the most fun, and one of the most remarkable products I have seen in years. Buy two . . . I did ! ! !

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Well-crafted fun is what...
Review: ... Mark Setteducati and Anne Benkovitz have presented in the simple, yet interactive tricks that create a welcome distraction from the age of high-tech games, computers, and television. The book is presented like a magic show, prompting for audience (or reader) participation. It begins with the cover and does not necessarily end at the very last page, which contains additional props if you want to revisit one of the tricks for a skeptical audience or if you want to add a different spin on one other trick. There is a reset book (to reorganize everything for the next performance) that also consists of presentation suggestions for some of the tricks. "The Magic Show" uses both mathematical and optical illusions to amuse young and old. The tricks can stimulate thinking for the younger audience when they ponder "How did they do that?" If you are a parent or just an adult who is young at heart and appreciates magic, this is an enjoyable book to purchase for yourself or to give as a gift to a budding Houdini.

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Magic is cool
Review: Anybody who enjoys magic should Get this book because every thing Comes in it. I give five stars!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Extremely clever!
Review: As a professional magician, I was very curious about this book when it was described to me. I was extremely impressed when I got it. It looks good and is cleverly designed. Several of the 12 tricks still fool me today! I already plan on ordering more for gifts or giveaways in my shows.

Summary: Awesome creativity....brilliant design....BUY IT!
Review: Best gift of the holiday season, bar none.

The above reviews don't do it justice - you have to experience it for yourself.

I wish most "real" magic shows were as entertaining as this book!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Not Worth The money
Review: Bought this book, thought it would be cool, but I feet like I wasted my money. The tricks were childish and not hard to figure out.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Magic the will amaze kids as well adults
Review: 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
