This latest effort by the author of the Harry Potter series is a tiny book of children’s stories written by and for Wizards and their children.
A collection of five delightful fairy tales of magic and magicians translated by Hermione Granger with comments by Albus Percival Wolfric Brian Dumbledorf . There are also foot notes by J. K. Rowling that serve to explain some of the Wizarding terms and actions to Muggle readers.
Dumbledorf’s comments serve to shed light on the long time relationship between Muggles and Wizards, their tentative truce and how the Wizard world will sometimes help the Muggles in spite of how badly they have been treated over the years. He has comments for each story.

As I read this book, it was impossible to keep from hearing Richard Harris' voice when I read Dumbledore's commentaries.
