Summary

Is it possible to move an object using only your mind? If your friend draws a card from a deck, can you guess what card it is? Could you guess it correctly fifty-two times? Coincidence or luck could explain such amazing acts, but so could clairvoyance, psychokinesis, and telepathy. Do these mysterious mind powers truly exist? Some people think so. ASTONISHING MIND POWERS puts these psychic abilities to the test in this book for reluctant readers.
