So, you want to be the best magician in school? Your best audience for your very first magic show is a full-length mirror! That's where you'll get so good that your friends, even your teacher, won't figure out your secrets. Every trick uses ordinary household stuff, such as string, a saltshaker, pencils, soda bottles, and balloons you can turn into magical objects. Tie a knot in a string without touching it, then cut it in two, and put it back together again. Make a saltshaker disappear. Turn a pencil into rubber. Bend a spoon with two fingers and straighten it again. Watch everybody's eyes when you trap a ghost in a bottle so it moves a coin up and down. Stick a pin into a balloon without popping it. All 23 tricks will make your friends beg you to do them again and again, but they'll never catch on.
