A fairy tale on the printed page excites a child's wonder and stretches his imagination. Drama is added when it is read or told by a good storyteller. Magic adds an extra dimension. A magic trick, well presented, is a fairy tale come alive. The magician is himself a storyteller and the wonders he relates appear to happen. This is why all children are fascinated by magic.

     If you can do even one trick that is really magical you can command any child's instant attention. If you can do several, you are Superman, Merlin, and a fairy godmother all in one. It is a sure-fire way to make friends of, and influence, children.
