This book dives into performing mentalism for everyone from pre-schoolers to adults—yep, even the grown-ups will be left scratching their heads. It’s an absolute treasure trove packed with effects, essays, and handy advice from those who earn their living entertaining family audiences. This volume is set to become a staple in both the magic and mentalism realms. If you’ve ever doubted that mentalism could work for young minds, this book is here to prove you wrong (and show you exactly how to pull it off).
"The essays in this book are worth the price of the entire book, and more!! The rest of this book is a treasure trove of fascinating mental effects that your young - and not so young - audiences will enjoy. These wonderful effects are so good that I'm tempted to dust off my old Riccardo outfit and start performing again. I know you'll enjoy this book, and will come back to it again and again in the future. If you have any doubts whatsoever about performing mentalism for children, try one or two of the effects in this book. I know you'll change your mind. Thank you, Paul, for compiling and publishing this valuable book."
- Richard Webster
"When magicians and mentalists think of 'kids' they think of kids 3-4 years old. This is rarely the case, even for regular kids entertainers. People do not give kids enough credit for being smart. They get mentalism and mindreading, even at the age of five and six. It can be done, and I have done it. They certainly understand when Harry Potter gets a psychic image."
