Publisher's Note Presents facsimile editions of two books from the world of Harry Potter--the text for Hogwarts' Care of Magical Creatures class and a book on the origins and development of the wizarding game of Quidditch.
Industry Reviews "With its richly detailed history lessons and witty debate parsing the differences between 'being' and 'beast,' plus a compendium of 85 magical creatures that's chockablock with Rowling's trademark wordplay ('Glumbumble' is a standout), BEASTS adds a vital new dimension to the Potter mythology."
