New edition of The Treasure Chest: Harry Houdini: Prince of Air

A new paperback edition of Ann Hood's The Treasure Chest: Harry Houdini #4: Prince of Air is released today by Penguin Workshop. When the book was first released by Grosset and Dunlap in 2012, the cover did not feature Houdini, nor was his name in the title. But it is now!

The secrets of Elm Medona thicken . . . with Harry Houdini! 

When Great-Uncle Thorne arrives at Elm Medona, Maisie and Felix's lives get shaken up again. Uncle Thorne moves the family into the mansion proper. One night, Great-Aunt Maisie arranges for Thorne, Maisie, and Felix to rendezvous with her in The Treasure Chest. Minutes later, Maisie and Felix find themselves at a magic show on Coney Island in 1894 starring Harry Houdini. As they follow him and his brother Dash to Pennsylvania and Rhode Island and back to New York City, they wonder what has become of Great-Aunt Maisie and Great-Uncle Thorne. Then one evening at Tom Pastor's Famous 14th Street Theater, the curtain opens and all is revealed.

Another interesting change. The date of this adventure has apparently been changed from 1893 to 1894.

You can purchase The Treasure Chest: Harry Houdini #4: Prince of Air by Ann Hood at Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk.
