Beginner's Guide To Magic

At some point in time, just about every little kid wants to be a great magician. For me this time came when I was four years old. I know this might seem a little
young, but I was a precocious child and ever eager to try anything new.
The circus was in town and that night we all went down to see it. The one thing that caught my star-struck four year old mind however, was not the bearded lady, or the tallest man, or even the lions or the elephants.
And although the trapeze artists did capture my rapt attention for a
short while, I have to say that it was the Marcelo the Marvelous
Magician who caught my mind.
