Houdini the rabbit is a magician's assistant until one day he steals the show from Monsieur Lapin and becomes the magician himself. But Houdini decides that he doesn't love being the star, so he reverses the spell and puts Monsieur Lapin back in charge. McLaren's digital illustrations, with dynamic formatting and theatrical compositions, add their own magic touch to a humorous story about sharing (the spotlight).
