Summary: These books helps me to further imagine the HP series
Review: Reading the textbooks of Harry Potter's is great, especially the notes scribbled by Harry, ron and Hermione. So cute! I actually read again all the series after reading the textbook to have other dimension of imagining the whole story and characters.

It helps you to imagine how Norbert look like and figure out why the centaurs prefer to live in low profile. And the goblin seems so politically cheeky. One should read these books to have a better 'feel' the Harry Potter stories.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: must read for any "Potter" fan
Review: these books gets 5 stars if your under 13. A quick amusing read. don`t let their smallness fool you, "The magicalworlds of harry potter" is based on these two books. Highy informitive.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Harry the Great!!!!!!:p
Review: The Harry Potter series is my all time time favorite. The books are about a normal boy who discores that he is wizard and a very important and famous one. He enters the world of magic and finds a better home and family than the one he has in the muggle(nonmagic) world. He starts assisting Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and is able to get away from home where live his picky Aunt Petunia, his fat Uncle Vernon and (worst of all) his naughty cousin Dudley. At Hogwarts now he is important, has friends, a pet, a magical education, and an opportunity to develope his talents. In the series one book is one school year.

The books are safe for young chidren and even fun for adults. The events and the characters make the books hilarious, exciting, and mistirious. One of the best things about them is that the things that happen all match together.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A (sort of) adult fan of HP
Review: Sort of a mixed bag. All though I greatly enjoyed the intro/preface/history in Magical Beasts and Where to Find Them, there were several omissions (Bogarts for one) and the descriptions were irritatingly vague and short. However, Quidditch Through the Ages surpassed my expectations as much as the Magical Beasts fell short. The history and narrative was top notch and added a lot to the (re)reading of the novels.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very entertaining
Review: This pair of books is very entertaining, and gives a nice little look into Harry Potter's world. Just the descriptions of the creatures, and the background on Quidditch is intriguing. It amazes me how J.K Rowling came up with all of this!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I Sooooo Love this book
Review: Hello I'v read the H.P books for about 2 or 3 years and my teachers have notticed my inpovement in reading.

One thing I like to read are thes three books.

They are very well done with little writing at the beging such as,"DUNG BOMES RULE"in fantastic beasts and whare to find them though out the hole theing.

MY frinds love this and are planning to get some of their own when they get paind.

When you read these their like the text books at school!

They tell you informantion about what ever your reading about and its achuly INTRESTING!

It was a present for me on my birthday and I was exsited to see I had gotten it,{and some other H.P things}, and me and my frinds skimmed though them after eating the cake.

If you ever think your kid wont like to read and lurn about Harry Potter thene you have never checked this out!

I LOOOOOVE THIS!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great for all potter fans!!
Review: these books are really fun for potter fans of all ages. Quidditch Through The Ages is cool because you can learn about the history of the game that has influenced Harry's life so much (for example, did you know that the golden snitch was evolved from a golden bird that became endangered because too many wizardss killed them in games?). Fantastic Beasts is also really cool because there are things written in it by Harry and Ron, which make the book funny. It is also very interesting to learn about other creatures not named in the books...I LOVE THESE BOOKS, I RECOMMEND THEM TO EVERYONE!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A definite 5-star book, a must-have for Harry Potter Lovers!
Review: Practicly the best book(s) (aside from the original Harry Potter series) J.K. has ever written. It even includes written notes (in pen) by Harry Potter. FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM tells wizards (and, now to muggles, however I wish they would have kept it in the wizarding community)nearly every kind of magical beast there is, where to find it, it's Ministry of Magic classification, and more. I have not personally read QUIDITTCH THROUGH THE AGES, but I have been told that it tells how the bludger came into existance, how the Golden Snitch was founded, and WAY, WAY, WAY more intresting facts about the most popular sport in the wizarding world, Quidittch.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: One good, one boring!
Review: I found that only Quidditch Through the Ages was worth buying- the other one gave stupid little tidbits that, to be entirely truthful, were a waste of time, and you can find online. It was nothing but a summary of the beasts that Rowling has already introduced, or will likely introduce in the future. It wasn't worth reading.
Quidditch Through the Ages was much, much better- A lot of detail that's not mentioned in the novels, and it is actually quite interesting.
Don't waste your money buying both of the books unless you're REALLY desperate- just stick with Quidditch. :o)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: AWSOME!!!
Review: There is nothing wrong with these books! The price for these are AWSOME! it is a MUST HAVE for all Harry Potter fans but even for those who have not read the series they are very fun to read over, and over again!
