Why these books?:
I - ahem - read both of these for the Summer Reading program (Red Cover and Sports Book). They are certainly for all ages, correct?
Plus I wanted to read Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them before the movie and screenplay.
Comments:
I had held off reading these all these years because I was uncertain of what I'd find. They were both quick and interesting reads.
Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them is a copy of Harry Potter's textbook, so every time there was a notation, I was mentally trying to place when on the timeline it might be referring to.
Quidditch Through the Ages is more of a history (a copy of the Hogwarts Library copy). I found myself most interested in the part about the various teams from around the world. It was especially timely reading after the watching some of the Olympics.
