Product Information
'You've never heard of The Tales of Beedle the Bard ?' said Ron incredulously. 'You're kidding, right?' (From Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows ) The Tales of Beedle the Bard played a crucial role in assisting Harry, with his friends Ron and Hermione, to finally defeat Lord Voldemort. Fans will be thrilled to have this opportunity to read the tales in full. An exciting addition to the canon of Harry Potter, the tales reveal the wonderful versatility of the author, as she tackles with relish the structure and varying tones of a classic fairy tale. There are five tales: 'The Tale of the Three Brothers', recounted in Deathly Hallows , plus 'The Fountain of Fair Fortune', 'The Warlock's Hairy Heart', 'The Wizard and the Hopping Pot', and 'Babbitty Rabbitty and her Cackling Stump'. Each has its own magical character and will bring delight, laughter and the thrill of mortal peril. Translated from the original runes by Hermione Granger, the tales are introduced and illustrated by J. K. Rowling. Also included are notes by Professor Albus Dumbledore, which appear by kind permission of the Hogwarts Headmasters' Archive. The Tales of Beedle the Bard is published in aid of the Lumos (link to wearelumos.org), an international children's charity (registered charity number 1112575) founded in 2005 by J.K Rowling. Lumos is dedicated ending the institutionalisation of children, a harmful practice that effects the lives of up to eight million disadvantaged children around the world who live in institutions and orphanages, many placed there as a result of poverty, disability, disease, discrimination and conflict; very few are orphans. Lumos works to reunite children with their families, promote family-based care alternatives and help authorities to reform their systems and close down institutions and orphanages.Product Identifiers

Lovely little book
I can't really tell you what it's like as it was a present for someone and I was recommended to buy it by my daughter who loves all things Harry Potter, so I am presuming it is a good read. I was surprised as to how small it was but apparently the stories in it are good.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Excellent written book.
Excellent written book and a fine addition to the Potter collection. The only bug bind I've got is ,why oh why was it printing on nasty cheap feeling paper that's see through if the light catches it. I would have payed for a better quality one had I had known.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A must for potterheads
Got this for my grandson for Christmas, I have never seen him so excited to receive a book as he thought it was only in the film. Good value and has encouraged him to read instead of using technology, would definitely recommend to all potterheads.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
