Brilliant compliment to the series October 1, 2008
Mr. T. Murray (UK)
I've read both these books and I have a bit of an obsession about the series. I got the books separately but I like the design of this set. The books are very enjoyable, very brief that adds to their charm.
I hope someday the "Half-Blood Princes potion book" becomes available.
JK Rowling produces another winner August 6, 2008

My sister had these books so i thought i'd read them. I really enjoyed them (especially harry's book with all the comments!) as they look at the history and beings of magical creatures and quidditch and liked the witty humour in them, which makes them perfect for both children and adults. I ended up buying the book pack myself and in this pack, a library card sticker comes with it, which is great to see who has borrowed these books from the library. These are starting to become hard to get so grab a bargain before they're gone!

Who hasnt wanted to know what Harry's school books contains? I sure have, and when given the amazing chance to read them, you just do not turn it down. Written by JKR herself, these books are packed with inside information to the world of Harry Magic, and contains more than a few clues to the septology as a whole. And lets not forget... its for a good cause!!!

This is an enjoyable book, before giving it to my nephew, I had to read it first (to make sure it was suitable - of course!!!) and it was good fun. And it is raising money for an excellent charity. so what are you waiting for, go and buy it!!!
Compulsory for anyone serious about their O.W.L exams! August 15, 2005

It has to be said, JK Rowling has really thought out the Harry Potter universe well, and these books only support that claim. Simply put, "Quidditch through the ages" gives you everything you could ever wish to know about the magical sport, and "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them" is a great fountain of information about creatures in the main books. Of course, it would be very easy for these books to become something serious, intense and sleep inducing like some of the Lord of the rings publications around... that is, if Rowling wasn't responsible for them. "Fantastic Beasts & Where to find them" is filled with some of Harry and Ron's personal doodles, sarcastic comments and pen and paper games, definitely funny stuff. On top of this the articles themselves have an underlying sense of humour to them, especially whena creature already seen in the main books crops up. "Quidditch through the ages" is completely different, and while it lacks the unique doodles of the fore mentioned book (it is official Hogwarts library property you know!) the history of Quidditch more than makes up for this. In no way is this just a tedious account of how the sport developed, but it talks about strange events, customs and peculiarities which will have you chuckling to yourself as you read. Would I prefer to see a bigger full version? Yes! But at the end of the day, it's for chairty and definitely worthwhile! A must for anyone who loves Harry Potter or is just a charitable person!
