THE TALES OF BEEDLE THE BARD By J.K. Rowling

THE TALES OF BEEDLE THE BARD By J.K. RowlingBefore I even start talking about how phenomenal this book was, I would like to say that J.K. Rowling is my all time favorite author ever because of her famous series of Harry Potter, the best books IN THE WORLD, and I am a Harry Potter fanatic. I worship the books. OK, now that that's settled, let's get on with the actual review. This amazing collection of wizard fairy tales is a pleasure to read. We (being toads) are familiar with, Snow White and the Seven Warty Toads, and Cinderella the Fly and her Two Toad Step-Sisters, but "the wizarding world children" are familiar with the stories in this book. The Warlock and his Hairy Heart is as well known as the nursery song, Three Blind Toads.

I enjoyed this remarkable collection greatly. In this brilliant read, Professor Albus Percival Wulfrick Brian Dumbledore gives a commentary on each of these amazing fables. His eccentric point of view on things and his unique explanations give each story a new light in my opinion. My personal favorite fairy tale was Babbity Rabbity and her Cackling Stump, because it shows an early example of an Animagus, (a human who is capable of a transformation from human to a certain animal at will) and because it teaches "young wizards" that once something is dead, you cannot bring it back to life. I would recommend this book to female and male toads alike of any age, and I strongly advise everybody who reads this review to check out the best series ever, Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling.

Let's see, five out of five toads! This one goes on my cedar bookshelf that Grandma Toadsie made for my favorites.
