Nice, quick read of some Potter flavored fairy tales with some notes that tie it into the lexicon. Perhaps unfair but comparable to [b:The Adventures of Tom Bombadil 1537134 The Adventures of Tom Bombadil J.R.R. Tolkien http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1184885184s/1537134.jpg 2963754].
Favorite story?
The tale of the three brothers of course.
Has some insight into history of magic, how muggles were perceived back in the day.
Reading Dumbledore's analysis of the stories was an added bonus.
I love Harry Potter and I love reading children's stories.
THIS WAS SO NICE. I was mind-blowned by J.K. Rowling's ability to write as a character and as an author (this would only make sense if you read the notes by Albus Dumbledore haha). The stories were quirky and beautiful, and it made me so sad because this is all pretend. Apigaaaaa
