In a young boy's dream-world anything can happen -- even magic.
What magic is there in the child's world of fantasy? What magic is
there in everyday things such as electricity and magnetism?
Students in intermediate grades will want to discuss their own
"magic tricks", while younger children can make hypotheses about
why some events cannot really happen.

Produced by the National Film Board of Canada Six films by
Bill Maylone
All children want to make sense of the world around them. These
six films without dialogue build upon and develop children's
natural interest in their surroundings.
With Teacher's Guide.
- "During a time when libraries and schools are rethinking ways
to achieve excellence, the development of children's reasoning
skills should not be overlooked... . Complete with authentic sound
effects, evocative instrumental music, and two talented
performers, these shorts sharpen visual literacy as they provide
an entertainingly instructive method to make children, stop, look,
and listen... In a variety of ways these creative "core" videos
also speak clearly to such diverse populations as immigrant,
language-disabled, inner city, and rural children." Booklist
