Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by J.K. Rowling

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by J.K. Rowling-64 pages

A movie based on this short book by Rowling is being released in theaters this fall, so I wanted to read the book. It is a fun read, if short. I especially enjoyed Harry's and Ron's notes in the margins, although I wish there were even more of them. It is cool to both learn even more about ones mentioned and discussed in the Harry Potter books and to learn about new beasts. Some of the names are interesting and remind me of Dr. Seuss and/or Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. I am kind of excited to see the movie, especially since Eddie Redmayne is playing the title character.
