These books start with tricks that rely on the most basic sleight of hand skills and gradually increase in difficulty.No specialty magic shop items are needed to perform the 10 tricks in each book. They are instead accomplished with household materials.Each step has a corresponding photo, but the highlight here is the online videos (accessed via the Capstone 4D app): two per trick, one performance video and one showing how the illusion is accomplished. The added video tutorials enhance this rich, well-designed series. A win wherever magic is popular.
