Shadow Magic

If modern party games seem stiff and soulless, step out of the shadows with this nostalgic book. Just a little practice will have you demonstrating the roar of a lion and the snap of a crocodile; and soon you'll be putting on an entire show to impress your friends and family.

Shadow Magic contains 75 shadow animals to learn, ranging from simple one hand creations such as a swallow or a duck, to challenging two-hand shadows which allow you to create anything from a coyote to a rhinoceros. There are also simple exercises for the hands and fingers to help you prepare to make the more advanced creatures, and advice on how the different shadow animals could be used to create your own shadow theater to entertain your friends and family.
