Summary: A great book!
Comment: This is a great book. You should definitely get it for anyone who is interested in magic. I am 6 years old and I liked finding out what happened to Harry Houdini.

Rating: 4
Summary: Magical and mysterious
Comment: This is a book aimed at children, but as an adult fascinated by the legend of Houdini--I enjoyed the story and the artwork very much. It is told from the point of view of a young boy and his uncle who are in the audience of one of Houdini's underwater escapes. It really gives the feel of what it must have been like to watch one of these legendary performances. The artwork is very beautiful too.
The book captures the excitement and impenetrable mystery that Houdini as an artist was able to create. And has a nice little message about finding our own secret inside ourselves and escaping any bonds that try to hold us back from it. Any kid into magic or an adult interested in Houdini should love this book.
