Description
The UNBELIEVABLE new book in the Max Magic series from superstar TV presenter and magician, Stephen Mulhern!
NEVER GIVE UP!
Max Magic: The Greatest Show on Earth (Max Magic 2) is back and he's ready to win national talent show: The Greatest Show on Earth! He knows he's got what it takes to impress the show's judges: Willow Holloughby, Fox Blackshaw and Shussy D - and to wow the audiences with his illusions and magic tricks. He's not going to use his mysterious new magical abilities to do it, either - Max will compete fair and square.
But not everyone is happy about Max's moment in the spotlight. When masked magician Mr Mysterio enters the competition, Max suspects that something strange is going on. How is Mr Mysterio doing his tricks? And why is a reporter sniffing around at Gran's shop and asking questions about Max?
With the help of his friends and his trusty dog Lucky, Max is going to give The Greatest Show on Earth everything he's got . . .
An unforgettable adventure celebrating friendship, family and . . . MAGIC!
Engaging black-and-white illustrations throughout and a dyslexic-friendly layout make this perfect for every child.
Read Max Magic - the first book in the series: OUT NOW!
Inspired by Stephen Mulhern's incredible story of his journey to becoming a magician, performer and TV star.
