He started off with card tricks and then eventually began performing the escape acts that would make him famous. Known for his daring and death-defying illusions, he would do some of the greatest tricks ever: escaping from a milk can, being buried alive, and being locked inside a crate and thrown into a river. He conquered each of these seemingly impossible feats and showed the world the power of a little magic. Fun, fast-paced, and highly illustrated, Harry Houdini tells the story of the curious boy who became the worlds greatest magician and reveals how Houdini did some of his most stunning escapes."-- provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Who was Harry? -- Harry and the headless man -- Harry and the other Houdinis -- Harry hits the bottom -- Harry gets a break -- Harry heads abroad -- The house that Harry built -- Harry gets dangerous -- Harry's death-defying mysteries! -- Harry hangs upside down -- The sea monster and other sensations! -- Harry and the spirits. 500 $a First published in 2019 by David Fickling Books Limited. 600 10 $a Houdini, Harry, $d 1874-1926 $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Escape artists $z United States $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Magicians $z United States $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Ford, Geraint, $e illustrator. 830 0 $a First names. 941 $a 5 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012011632.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722062045.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20191114010417.0 952 $l XBPE737 $d 20190904012210.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20190822010146.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1E3A2E40C4A211E9B0E1DB5297128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
