Customer Reviews: Review #1: gift 2007-03-21 got it as a gift so i don;t know much about it, it looked cute. Review #2: Harry Potter Add-ons 2007-03-17 Fun info on some backround wizard world stuff. I enjoyed the books as an adult..not sure a child would as well. No Harry book collection would be complete without them. Review #3: Must-haves for any Potter fan 2007-03-12 I have been a huge fan of the Harry Potter books from the time that Sorcerer's Stone was first released. I absolutely adore reading them. Although these are classified as schoolbooks, they are just as entertaining and are no exception to the rule. They are great companions to their predecessors - I thought it was so interesting to read about Scamander's "fantastic beasts" or "Quidditch through the Ages". I loved learning more and more about Harry's world through his "schoolbooks". Rowling has done an amazing job with these. Review #4: Harry Potter Schoolbooks 2007-03-08 My children really liked these books. The best was Fantastic Beasts and Wehre to Find Them. They were not as interested in Quidditch Through The Ages, it didn't seem as good. Both are great books for Harry Potter fans. Review #5: JK Rowling has such a great imagination 2007-02-25 After the first book I was hooked and just can't get enough of the Harry Potter serious. Everyone should read these books. They take you to a magical place where the imagination can roam. These companion books are ok and interesting.
