Bookroo's summary

Mike's school life is improving thanks to magic, but his reputation lags behind. A visit to The White Rabbit Magic Shop reveals a tantalizing possibility: he might be related to the legendary Harry Houdini. When a classmate dares him to prove it, Mike faces a challenge that only magic can solve. Can he escape this bind and transform his image, or will he remain the same old Mike? Discover the twists and turns as he navigates this magical dilemma.

From the publisher

Mike is doing better in school these days. Learning magic helps him to learn other things as well. Sure, he’s gotten in trouble in the past, but things are different now. So why does everyone still think he’s the same old Mike? If only there was a magic trick to change his reputation… Then, during one of his visits to The White Rabbit Magic Shop, Mike finds something that could be even better than a magic trick-it’s possible that Mike could be related to Harry Houdini-the greatest magician ever! But when Mike lets the news slip, and Jackson Jacobs dares him to prove it, he knows that he’s in the type of bind that only magic can help him escape!
