Awestruck

AGOG

Think of how someone might look when they're eagerly waiting with wide eyes, like a child seeing a magic trick for the first time.

"Awestruck" hints at being wide-eyed with wonder, and "agog" perfectly fits that meaning—it’s an old-fashioned word for excited or eager anticipation. The clue plays on the literal sense of being struck with awe, while the answer leans on the less common but fitting term. Think of someone so amazed their eyes are popping, and you’ve got the connection.
