Summary: The tale of the three brothers, this book contains five illustrated moral tales for children from the world of Harry Potter, reportedly discovered and translated by young witch Hermione Granger, with an introduction and commentary from Albus Dumbledore, headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Mrs. Wilson Says: If you miss Harry Potter, read this book! Sometimes you might find that Dumbledore's parts a bit difficult, but mostly you'll love the stories and the extra bits of information that you'll learn about their wizarding world. Also, J.K. Rowling did all of the illustrations inside of the book herself (HP's usual illustrator is Mary GrandPre and she did the cover art).
This book is coming to the Bledsoe Library, but it hasn't arrived as of December 30th. Let Mrs. Wilson know if you want to be on hold for it when it arrives.
