It’s not as informative or detailed as her other one, You Don't Have To Be Crazy, but it still makes for interesting, light reading.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has many anecdotes of famous and not so famous magicians which help you relive the past golden years of magic. I don’t know if such things continue to happen as the magic community has been watered down over the last twenty years or so but I hope there are similar parallels today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf particular interest is the section on the Chicago Magic Bar scene which gives a glimpse into a world that I certainly have never experienced and would like to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso, there is a very helpful section on performing to kids. This section is certainly filled with the real meat and potatoes for performing to children and is worth checking out if you plan on performing to this difficult, but rewarding, age group.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall a worthwhile relaxing read, from one of the most wonderful ladies in Magic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrictly Personal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOkito, My Good Friend\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Fairy Tale Life of Marie Bamberg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThose Blessed Gamblers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaging Mr. Cardini\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThen and Now in the Magic Business\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJasonia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe Writers “Amusing Bags of Wind”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlaying the Moppet Circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Kid Show, How to Avoid Ulcers in the Playing of\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAround Chicago with Frances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCicero’s Celebrities - John Paul\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot the Best But the Biggest\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Royal Family of Magic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt Happened to...\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Magic Shop San Diego","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40425008529501,"sku":"BB14 WFIMFI","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/magicshopsandiego.com\/products\/bb14-1","provider":"Magic Shop San Diego","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
