A thrilling reimagining of Houdinis childhood years and the life that made him master of escape, from the award-winning author of The Ostrich Boys. The year is 1885 and Erik Weisz, a penniless immigrant, has found himself in trouble again. His uncanny talent for picking locks and his gleeful showboating to match it, have earned him very few friends and a bad reputation. But this is just the beginning of his story and Erik is destined for a far more magical future. Watch as he transforms before your very eyes into the greatest showman the world has ever seen Particularly suitable for struggling, reluctant or dyslexic readers aged 8+
