This book by JK Rowling is really fun. I enjoyed these stories. This book was written to help JK Rowling’s Charity with money. There are 5 stories. The stories are the magic version of what we would call “Fairy Tales” or “Fables.” These are what the magic communities in Harry Potter’s world would be read to for bedtime stories though some could be quite shocking for little ones to be read to at bedtime. My favorite part of the book is the actual stories. They have some fun bonuses though. Dumbledore (the character) gives insight and commentary on each one. That is fun to read. Also, the author JK Rowling gives footnotes. Hermione (the character) is to have translated the stories. I really thought the stories were fun and believable. It was quick, light reading that went best when I was using my imagination.
A place to record the books I've read. With a short review on each. I strive to never tell too much of the story to ruin it for anyone. BUT, if it is a picture book, I often tell the endings. “Of course anyone who truly loves books buys more of them than he or she can hope to read in one fleeting lifetime. A good book, resting unopened in its slot on a shelf, full of majestic potentiality, is the most comforting sort of intellectual wallpaper.” ― David Quammen
