Harry Houdini is the world-famous escape artist. However, there is
much to this great magician than his tricks. Did you know that Houdini
didn't like being called a magician but, preferred being called an
escape artist? He was also the first pilot to fly a plane in Australia.
Houdini was also a perfectionist when it came to his acts. When his
brother, Theo made a mistake during one of the performances, Houdini
found Bess, who later became his wife to help him perform his
illusions.
I found the biography to be well written
and very interesting. I learned a lot more about Houdini. The book was
very easy to read and understand. I also like how the author included
diagrams showing how the tricks were done. While the book was well
written, I didn't like the drawings. I felt the drawings looked rush and
incomplete.
