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, 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.

fantastic beasts and where to find them is a must have for all harry potter fans.
it is the answer to all magical creature related questions.
after reading this book you will know many interesting facts about the creatures you already know of and discover heaps of other magical creatures that you couldnt imagine in your dizziest daydreams.
a copy of fantastic beasts and where to find them resides in almost every wizarding household in the country.now muggles too have the chance to discover where the quintaped lives, what the puffskein eats and why it is best not to leave milk out for a knarl.
proceeds from the sale of this book will go to comic relief, which means for the dollars and galleons you exchange for it will do magic beyond the powers of any wizard.if you fell that this is an insufficient reason to part with your money i can only hope that passing wizards feel more charitable if they see you being attacked by a manticore.
This book is really cute, it has loads of information about all the creatures. J.K's creativity shows even further in this, as it is unbelieveable she created all these creatures herself! It has lots of cute little notes from Harry, Ron and Hermione, which are rather amusing. The delivery was quick-ish, and I was very happy with the quality.
I still have not received this item,
If there was some way, some one could figure out if it's still coming it would be greatly appreciated.
The two other books that i bought arrived a few weeks ago.
