Fantasy The Tales Of Beedle The Bard is a slender volume of tales by J.K. Rowling, part of the world of Harry Potter. The tales themselves are straightforward and nicely told fables, lovely and magic to read. But the most fun part of the book for this adult reader, who frequently finds much delight and entertainment in books intended for younger readers, is the commentary that follows each tale. That commentary is by none other than Professor Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore himself. The commentary, which points out the moral and historical provenance each tale, is wry and witty and funny. Beedle's tales are entertaining and enjoyable. I found this listen to super fun. I really did enjoy this stories about he wizarding world. I loved learning more about he wizrding society as a whole. I really liked all the stories. I think they worked well to not only flesh out the world but also give more information about he hallows in general. I also really liked albus notes at the end. I found this listen to super fun.

The Tales of Beedle the Bard, a Wizarding classic, first came to Muggle readers' attention in the book known as Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Now, thanks to Hermione Granger's new translation from the ancient runes, we present this stunning edition with an introduction, notes, and illustrations by J. K. Rowling, and extensive commentary by Albus Dumbledore. Never before have Muggles been privy to these richly imaginative tales. No library descriptions found.
