Write 6 pages with APA style on The Magic Shop by Herbert George Wells. The very presence of the story "The Magic Shop" by Herbert George Wells draws the attention of the reader to the fabulous magic shop which has all paraphernalia of a genuine magic shop. &nbsp.Minor miracles of wish-fulfillment are worked for the customers of real ‘magic shop’.The children are really attracted to this shop. Gip is readily fascinated by this shop and through his innocent gestures shows his insistence on going into that shop. His birthday is near so he wants to buy a birthday gift from this shop. The writer’s description of the magic shop is so vivid:

There was a tiger in papier-mache on the glass case that covered the low counter--a grave, kind-eyed tiger that waggled his head in a methodical manner. there were several crystal spheres, a China hand holding magic cards, a stock of magic fish-bowls in various sizes, and an immodest magic hat that shamelessly displayed its springs.

When they enter into a shop they see quite fascinating stuff there. They also meet the weird shop man who in a quite strange way enters into the scene. His exit from the scene in no less mysterious. This Chatterbox keeps them engaged and makes them realize the importance of his ‘genuine magic shop’. Why he harps on the genuineness of the shop is hard to understand. As we know that father remains always in doubt about the genuineness of this magic shop. Sometimes he calls it too genuine. He reflects, “I was beginning to think the magic just a little too genuine".

The two characters have two different standpoints about the shop. The little child Gip has no doubts about the genuineness of the shop and he is awed by the magical atmosphere and is enjoying being part of the scene. “Dada!” said Gip, at last, “that WAS a proper shop!”. Though the father, in the end, gets scared and wants to come out of the shop as soon as possible the boy felt no such desire. The boy enjoyed all the fun there. He liked crystal balls and the rabbit trick. He also liked the beautiful showroom with all its colorful and fascinating stuff.
