Nice, quick read of some Potter flavored fairy tales with some notes that tie it into the lexicon. Perhaps unfair but comparable to [b:The Adventures of Tom Bombadil 1537134 The Adventures of Tom Bombadil J.R.R. Tolkien http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1184885184s/1537134.jpg 2963754].
《And then he greeted Death as an old friend, and went with him gladly, and, equals, they departed this life.》
Re-read :) I enjoyed it even more compared to the first time I read it!! ♥
I think this book does a lot better than Quidditch: Through The Ages at expanding the wider-wizarding world. I particularly liked The Tale of Three Brothers featured at the end of the book.
I love Harry Potter and I love reading children's stories.
THIS WAS SO NICE. I was mind-blowned by J.K. Rowling's ability to write as a character and as an author (this would only make sense if you read the notes by Albus Dumbledore haha). The stories were quirky and beautiful, and it made me so sad because this is all pretend. Apigaaaaa
