Actually has some truth to it by Emily J. Taylor
I adore this book almost as much as I adore the series itself. Rowling was truly in a mood of creativity when she came up with this. What is only mentioned in passing in the books becomes a fully realized and surprisingly clever look at various monsters of the magical world.
In reality, I like animals as much as the next person, so it’s quite sweet to see summaries of those that don’t exist. Rowling also makes sure to give nods to actual folklore as she writes.
A Closer Look by Renea Wooten
If you have read the Potter series this book is for you. It gives you more detail into the mystical creatures in the books. I love it.
Great Insights into Wizarding Culture by Gift Card Recipient
This book is fun and also offers some excellent insight into the ways wizards think and how they would confront the problem of dangerous creatures and also why they find the less dangerous animals beautiful. There is also a lot of information on classifying the different species of magical creatures, as well as a distinction between a magical “being” and a magical “beast.” The opening of the book, a forward by Newt Scamander is also exciting, as he explains what drew him towards the subject of magical creatures and his travels around the world. Whenever I read this book I feel close to Harry’s world of witches and wizards. As Dumbledore’s says, if you refuse to buy this book because you don’t think charity is signigicant enough, I can only hope that when you meet a manticore along the way, a wizard is feeling charitable enough to help you!
These are real little books by Mrs. Alice S. Franceschini
I thought these were fake books, but nope, they got information
on fantastic beasts which is a lot of fun to read. Any Harry
Potter fan would love these.
