Escape! The Story of the Great Houdini

This is the story of the famous magician Harry Houdini and his greatest tricks: escaping from things like trunks, handcuffs, and straightjackets, making elephants disappear, breaking out of jail, or wrapping himself in chains and jumping into a river. Chock full of pictures and written by an author you may already know, Sid Fleishchman, who also happens to be a magician! When you’re done, amaze your family and friends with The Cool, Knock-Em-Dead, No Skill, Nine-Card Card Trick. As Mr. Fleischman says, “Don’t try this without a deck of cards in your hands. I’ll wait while you get one. This trick is so good you are going to fool yourself.” Author: Sid Fleischman
