This is actually a compilation of two books:

• Doing Magic For Youngsters by Bert Easley
• The Art of Conjuring TO Children by Eric P. Wilson

This is a full course on how to perform for children. It not only includes a lot of suitable tricks, but also all the other important factors you need to consider when performing for children. Even if you’ve been doing magic for juniors all of your life, there are valuable instructions, pointers, rules, hints and vital information in this work that are worth much more to anyone who entertains the small-fry.
