Description
"Being a magician is no easy trick. It hinges on one of the human qualities that’s most difficult to achieve....Genuine self-confidence, humility, and a sense of wonder: bravo, Tito." – Kirkus Reviews
Manu, the magician at Circus Rondo, is fantastic. With a little magic powder, a wand, and a few words, he can pull amazing things out of his top hat. Tito, the little clown, would love to do that kind of magic. But when he tries with his own little brown hat, the magic doesn’t work at all. Maybe it’s because he’s uncertain and shy. What would happen if Tito were to ask Manu to show him how the trick really works?
An endearing picture book about magic and daring, for children ages 3 years and up.
Advance Praise
