　　DO you know who gave Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe his magic lessons? Well, Radcliffe learned his magic tricks from magician (魔术师) Paul Kieve during breaks making the Harry Potter films.

　　Paul shares his secrets with teens in his book, Hocus Pocus: A Tale of Magnificent Magicians and Their Amazing Feats (《魔术盛宴》). Jieli Publishing House brought the book to China in April.

　　The book follows the story of a young magician. He has collected some mysterious (神秘的) old posters of the eight greatest magicians. To his surprise, one day the magicians come to life, one by one. They perform tricks right there in the young man’s home.

　　There are also 40 magic tricks to learn in the book and an introduction by Daniel Radcliffe to enjoy.
