This has to be my favorite of the illustrated editions
The “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” illustrated edition has to be opinion the most beautiful of all of the ones released so far. Each of the pages is illustrated beautifully for every fantastic creature you can possibly imagine in the Potter universe. My personal favorite was the dragon section which has beautiful illustrations of several different species of dragons. This book is a must buy for both new and older fans of the series and a great collection item for any Potter fan. So if you’re looking for a great present who loves Harry Potter, get these illustrated editions!

★☆☆☆☆
Disappointing book
1. The size of the book is inconsistent with the other HP illustrated series, which is disappointing.
2. The book does not have a dust jacket which is inconsistent with all of my other HP books and disappointing.
3. The illustrations lack depth. The majority of the book is just rough sketches with color. I can imagine that myself. What I was anticipating was amazing detail and a beautiful book. What I received looks like a rough draft. Not worth the price I paid.

2 . Do you like reading? What would you like to read? Here are four recommendations from trusted critics.
A Greenglass House Story Kate Milford, illustrated by Nicole Wong | Twelve guests, trapped at the Blue Vein Tavern by rising floodwaters, tell stories to pass the time. With tales that cross over between storytelling and reality, what starts as a series of unrelated tales weaves(编织)together into something smart and tight.A puzzle book that adults may enjoy just as much as its intended child audience. (For ages 4 to 8) |
Someone Builds the Dream Lisa Wheeler, illustrated by Loren Long | Someone Builds the Dream is a celebration of the cooperative spirit and a proof to what we can achieve if we work together.And after having the curtain pulled back like this, children (and probably many grown-ups) will look at the world around them with fresh eyes. (For ages 5 to 8) |
The Boy and the Sea Camille Andros, illustrated by Amy Bates | Following a young boy over a lifetime,Camille Andros' story flows back with a comforting rhythm while Amy Bates' timeless artwork washes over you. As the boy grows older, he returns regularly to the sea looking for answers but discovers something more valuable: visual angle. (For ages 4 to 8) |
Magic Candies Heena Baek, translated by Sophie Bowman | When Tong Tong purchases a bag of strange, round candies, he discovers that each one allows him to hear the hidden speech of someone, or something. Honestly, who wouldn't want to hear what the leaves have to say? You'll also be sure to treat your chair with greater kindness after a single read.(For ages 4 to 8) |
