The versatile Secret Lexicon has multiple strong effects built in.
We give you TEN QUICK-START READINGS to get rolling, such as:
1. Instant Book Test: Have someone open the dictionary to any page. Ask him to concentrate on, say, the top corner word. You IMMEDIATELY divine the word with a visually vivid reading. On the same two-page spread, you can also divine SEVERAL OTHER SPECIFIC WORDS in various locations.
2. Foolproof Word Prediction: Write down a word or sketch a picture. The spectator opens the dictionary anywhere. He looks at the word at a specific location, and it matches your prophesy.
No fishing, no guessing
Routines and mnemonic techniques included
Check out these ingenious features:
Peek Cues: Each lower outer corner has a subtle cue for the opposite page guide word, as well as other specific words on each page.
Quick Picture Vision: Every spread has an image you’ll know instantly. Force Artwork: 240 images on 40 pages, all chosen for readings.
Full-Color Pages: A 4-page color section with sneakily selected images.
Page Number Option: You don’t need to know the page number for any of our routines, but if you wish, the page numbers can secretly tell you specific words. (The words in each spread can also can tell you what page you’re on.)
Convertible Look: Take off the dustjacket to show off the leather cover and gilt edges for unmatched elegance, or leave it on for more casual shows.
Cue-Sheet Jacket: We’ve hidden lists of keywords in the jacket for use as a cue sheet or quick refresher.
Foolproof Spelling: If you like to call out a word’s letters one by one, you’ll know specific words without any scrambled anagrams or guessing. You’ll never miss, and you can announce spelling in sequential order.
Shakespeare Compatibility: If you own our Shakespeare Experiment book test, we’ve built some of its language features into The Secret Lexicon for mind-blowing combination effects. (Don’t worry, we explain the whole technique.) If not, you’ll still have several bonus words to predict (including a few risqué ones for comedy routines).
