Tricks & Pranks to Fool Your Friends Paperback – March 1, 2003 by Sheila Anne Barry (Author), Buck Jones (Illustrator)
 
Imagine scaring people silly by showing them a "hole in your hand?" Or knocking them out with unbelievable feats--like actually carrying a column of water with a straw? With these super pranks that trick the eyes and confound the mind, anything's possible! Amaze and delight (and sometimes freak out) your friends and family in no time at all, with the most simple equipment. Everyone will go mad trying to figure out how and why your pranks work. Have someone try to fold a piece of paper in half ten times; it can't be done. And you can fool yourself, too. Feel as if you're walking the tightrope without leaving the ground; all you need are a rope and a pair of binoculars. Play sneaky number games, read minds, do some double-dealing with cards, and much more.
