"Good evening Vikings and gentlemen! I, Joe the Magnificent, will now dazzle you with a spine-tingling, eye-opening, neck-saving display of MAGIC!!"

"Has anyone seen my Book?"

Also likely to say:

"From now on, no one uses The Book. Unless it is an absolute emergency."

Unlikely to really mean it when he says:

"From now on, no one uses The Book. Unless it is an absolute emergency."

Vanilla.

Family:

He has a younger sister Anna, a mom who mostly works with books, and a dad. Joe, like most kids, has no idea what his dad does. He has an Uncle Joe, an ex-magician, and an Uncle Jack. Uncle Joe gave him a mysterious birthday present. Maybe you heard of it: The Book.
