The Tales of Beedle The Bard by J.K. Rowling
Would you recommend this book? If so, who would you recommend it to, and why? If not, why not?
The Tales of Beedle The Bard is an addition to Harry Potter. These tales are brought up in Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows, where they read The Tale of The Three Brothers.
I would recommend this book, because it gives lots of insight on what Dumbledore believed (which is in the commentary). This is important because Dumbledore doesn't give much away, and is a very mysterious character. You can access his character traits through the commentary, where he calls himself one of the world's greatest wizards of all time.
Beedle's Tales include a foolish king, a hairy heart, a silver knife, a huge white worm, and people walking endlessly without getting any closer to their goal.
The Tales of Beedle The Bard is a great book, with tales about wizards, witches, and muggles alike. I greatly recommend this book.
The Tales of The Three Brothers is about the Deathly Hallows, including the elder wand, the resurrection stone, and the invisibility cloak.
If you have only read the first book of Harry Potter, then you get the idea what is cloak is when you read The Tales of Beedle The Bard.
