Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Magic is enjoyed by all age groups. The children liked learning about history, tombs and mummies. The adults liked the way the magic was geared toward reading. They liked hearing about books and authors they had not heard about before. The Halbrooks were able to keep the attention of every child. Some high school students left the computers in the adult area to watch the show.
