Summary: A reader from Utah
Review: The books were very cleverly written and made you feel like you were actually part of the wizarding world. They didn't have much to do with the Harry Potter books in content but there were a few side notes that had Harry mentioned in it. My favorite one out of the two was definitly Fantastic Beast and Where to find them. I liked the way that they had notes put in there by Harry and his friends, it was extremely funny reading Harry and Ron's thoughts through out the book. I suggest to all you Harry Potter fans to find a copy and read them.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A five star book!
Review: This books were very interesting with notes from Harry Potter in them. They were very interesting JK Rowling out did her self with these books! With just finishing her over 700 paged book! I give these books five stars.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Needs Pictures
Review: I expected these books to be mostly pictorial. They each contained only a few sketches and mostly text. They are very thin paperbacks of 56 and 42 pgs respecively. Despite this, Both are amusing and cleverly penned, and true to Harry Potter. Although not what I had hoped, I did enjoy them thoroughly.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Books For A Great Cause
Review: The proceeds from both books go to Comic Relief U.K., which goes to improving the lives of children around the world. If that doesn't make you want to go out and spend a mere ..... , keep in mind that these are official Harry Potter books put out by J.K. Rowling. What better way to get your Harry Potter fix while waiting for Book #5.

Both small books are written like textbooks from the Hogwarts school library, which is an extremely nice touch. "Quidditch Through the Ages" is an extremely imaginative book that literally walks you through the history of the game of Quidditch. From the days of Gertie Keddle, who lived in Queerditch Marsh, to the modern day Quidditch World Cup, you'll be taken chronologically through the game's development. In this book, you'll read about the history of the racing broom, find out the names of the most popular moves (the Woollongong Shimmy is my personal favorite), and learn about the best teams in the world. I can't wait for the Tutshill Tornados to take on the Moose Jaw Meteorites.

"Fantastic Beasts & Where To Find Them" is another excellent book that is made to look like it is one of Harry Potter's personal textbooks. The handwritten notes in the margins are very amusing and it's nice to see that Harry has such a nice sense of humor.

In this book, you will find specific explanations on what a "beast" or "being" actually is. The book also goes into great detail about the descriptions of the fantastic beasts in an A-Z format that makes for entertaining reading.

Both books have introductions written by Albus Dumbledore, which adds to the overall enjoyable quality of the book. J.K. Rowling continues to put out wonderful products in the Harry Potter line, and I can't think of a better way to not only satisfy my "Pottermania" cravings, but help people in need. These books are a must for anyone with children.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Truely Magical
Review: I"ve read both books and they are perfect for keeping you content until the fifth book comes out. They are very interesting and they will help you understand the Harry Potter books a little bit better

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: JK Rowling can do no wrong
Review: these two books are a perfect compliment to the other four

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: What a great idea!
Review: These books are great. Especially for Harry Potter fans. They are copies of Harry's School books and offer a great insight into the magical world. They give details about many of the magical animals and about the wizarding sport, quidditch. Any Harry Potter fan REALLY needs to get these. They even have little notes taken by Harry and his friends like a real schoolbook would have. Like my title, this is REALLY a great idea. The only drawback is that you won't get any plot from these. They are like Harry Potter Encyclopedias, so you won't be left wanting more, like in the real Harry Potter books. Basically, i would say you should get this, if your a real Harry Potter fan.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Differant than I thought!
Review: When I saw these books I thought they were stuped. I read them and wow! They were really good. I thought the animals in Fantastic Beasts and Whare to Find Them were cool. Quidditch Through the Ages was interesting too. Every one should read these books.
