54: Hocus Pocus Practice Focus with Amy Kimlat

Scamapalooza with Nicholas J. Johnson

My kid just performed their first solo magic show. In front of 300 of their peers, they correctly predicted a randomly selected TV show, vanished a bottle of coke and tricked the principal into opening a can of spring snakes.

Classic comedy!

But why do so many kids, particularly girls, give up on magic?

Amy Kimlat is a children’s author and former kid magician whose new picture book Hocus Pocus Practice Focus inspires kids to stick with their passions, no matter how hard it gets.

I talked to Amy about performing magic as a kid, girls in magic, and being a first-time author.
