Children delight in magic show

The Summer Reading Program at Ennis Public Library had a packed house again Tuesday as they welcomed magician Brett Roberts.
Karen Witte, one of two facilitators of the program, said they saw around 172 children for Roberts’ show. His brand of magic boasts more than just white rabbits and colored scarves. Roberts combines magic tricks, puppets, music and reading to create what he called a “magic reading railroad show.”

He also got the crowd excited about books such as The Jungle Book, Around the World in 80 Days and Treasure Island. Roberts even instructed the audience on how to find books about magic in the library. Try section 793 if you’re interested.
