Weaver, Janice Harry Houdini, illustrations by Chris
Lane. Abrams, 2012. $19. PICTURE BOOK.
Much, much more than a picture book, despite its format, this is a
fact-filled look at the life of Harry Houdini. Using new illustrations, historic documents and many
photographs, there is so much information here that even a middle school
student could probably use this to write a report on the great man. Houdini’s life is incredible –
especially since he couldn’t resort to the camera tricks and digital “magic” that
is used way too much nowadays.
