MANDATORY WORDS: Ghost, Moon and Spider
At the Halloween Hoop-de-doo
rehearsal, Boodini the Great threw a sheet over himself. “Abracadabra!”
He removed it. “I’m
invisible!”
“Boo!” another GHOST groaned. “I can do that!”
“That’s only my first trick…”
“I need a show stopper.” Boodini searched for Eensy SPIDER.
“All spiders climb, but you’re famous. Why?” he asked.
“All spiders climb, but you’re famous. Why?” he asked.
“I climbed in rain,” Eensy explained. “It’s all in how
you look at it.”
“Ahhh!”Boodini smiled.
That night, he performed his act in front of thousands.
Then, the full MOON revealed that his audience had vanished.
He clapped. “Not every magician can make an entire
audience disappear!”
