TABLE OF CONTENTS
FIVE—one less than six
SIX—one more than five
SEVEN—six plus one equals
EIGHT—rhymes with fate
NINE—the number between eight and ten
TEN—the highest number in a deck of cards
ELEVEN—looks like two lines. Or two lowercase Ls, which could be confusing. For example, this is two lowercase Ls: ll. Looks like this 11, right? Confusing
TWELVE—also known as a dozen
THIRTEEN—oddly called “a baker’s dozen”. Always wondered why bakers get one more
FOURTEEN—the fourteenth chapter
FIFTEEN—ten plus half of ten
SIXTEEN—this one is sweet
SIXTEEN BILLION—(gotcha!) I wanted to be sure that you’re reading closely
SEVENTEEN—six more than nine, multiplied by ten, plus three, then divided by nine
EIGHTEEN—one more than seventeen
NINETEEN—the number missing from this representation of pi 3.141592653589793238462 643383279502884__71693
TWENTY—the second to last (chapter, I mean)
TWENTY-ONE—the last one

Do you believe in magic? Hi there. Yes, I’m talking to you. Well, do you? Do you believe in magic?
If you’re anything like the boy in this book, you might say no. But I assure you, there is magic all around you. It’s true. Don’t believe me? Look into my eyes and tell me you don’t see magic!

See what I did there? Eyes . . . ‘i’s . . .
