As featured in the first year set texts reading list in ""Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone"", ""Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them"" is an extensive introduction to the magical beasts that exist in the magical, non-Muggle world. Some of the animals featured in the A-Z you will have already met in the existing Harry Potter books: for example Hippogriff, Flobberworm, Kappa – others you certainly won’t: read on to find out exactly what a Chizpurfle is, why there are so few Erumpents, or why one should always beware of the sinister Lethifold. As Albus Dumbledore says in his introduction, this set text book by Newt Scamander has given the perfect grounding to many a Hogwarts student. It will be helpful to all Muggles out there too. On reading the book you will also find that Harry, Ron and (in one instance) Hermione – couldn’t resist grafittiing the book, and adding their own personal hand-written opinions.

Unlike Tales of Beedle the Bard, fantastic beasts and where to find them is a factual book in the world of Harry Potter, being about the magical beasts in the wizarding world! Recommended for a child into Harry Potter from age 6 to 100!

It was amazingly interesting to learn about all the magical animals. I especially like the puffskeins they are soo cute. I would recommend this to those who have read the rest of the Harry potters. Wizards believed that am afraid cry could foretell your early death.

It was ok. It gave you new information about the wizarding world but it was a bit boring at times. It was more exiting to read the notes they added in supposed to be written by characters in it than the actual book but yer its fine.

I love this book because it explains a lot about the magical beasts and it gives you more information about certain animals from the books

the book was amazing and was very funny and my favourite creature was the dragon but it was a hard choice and the article about the animals was probably the part that persuaded me to choose it.
