It impresses me how much work likely went into creating this book. This book clears up some of the many lies “journalist” Rita Skeeter claims in her biography Man or Monster? The Truth about Newt Scamander the definition of beast a brief history of muggle awareness of these creatures and ministry classifications before diving into a listing of creatures themselves. Scamander was permitted to re-issue the book only as long as he put in a disclaimer in telling Muggle readers the book was a work of fiction. In a foreword by Scamander, the author tells us that in 2001, a reprint of the textbook was made available to Muggle readers to raise money for Comic Relief, a well-respected charity. This book – green and gold with a dragon/serpent on the front – is the wizard’s version of this book. I am a huge Harry Potter fan and I can’t seem to get enough of Harry Potter’s world. I was super excited when I read on the Raincoast Books website that there was going to be a re-release of Newt Scamander’s Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them ( JK Rowling, $26.99, Raincoast Books, Bloomsbury).
