This book is about
Will sees a poster about a talent show at school. He and his friend, Tim, decide to do a judo demonstration. Will's sister, Lucy, is going to do a skipping demonstration with her friend, Pokehead. Tim and Pokehead become ill, so Will and Lucy decide to do magic tricks together for the talent show. They go to see Uncle Joe who teaches them magic tricks. At the show, Will gets a cold and Lucy has to do the tricks. She cuts Will in half. They both win the prize together.

The main characters are
Will and Lucy Quigley.

My favourite part of the book is
When Will gets cut in half by Lucy.

I would also like to say
There is a magic trick at the back of the book to try.
