There was a clumsy magician. Paragraph 1, he was about to perform a big show. He waved his wand for the first trick but accidentally turned his assistant's hair into a bunch of snakes.

But instead, he made a whole family of squirrels pop out and they ran all over the stage. In paragraph 3, when he tried to levitate a table, he only managed to make it wobble and then it fell on his foot. He yelped in pain.
