Summary: Dictionary of Folk Lore

This book offers loads of information & facts. So hurry up and add this fun read to your library.

Rating: 5
Summary: A MUST for the devoted HP fan!
Comment: I'm a huge Harry Potter fan and was a little wary of buy a companion book. But this is an absolutely fabulous book. It tells about almost every mythical being/activity mentioned in the HP series. The book goes into the detailed history of each subject. You can even learn how to read tea leaves, read palms, & analyze a name through Arithmancy. The pictures are great and the information even better. No wizard or muggle should be without this book!

Summary: Interesting, but very little to do with HP
Comment: This is a very interesting book and I read it over and over. The only thing wrong with it is that I was expecting for it to have something to do with HP, but it didn't, aside from mentioning it every once in a while. It's like an encyclopedia of monsters and magic and it's interesting, but it's muggle lore, it's what people actually believed in the middle ages and other times. While JKR certainly based some of her magical creatures on traditional folk lore, it is her book and she changed the creatures to suit the plot. By itself it's wonderful, but don't expect much insight on the books.
