Companion booksby J.K. Rowling

The Tales of Beedle the Bard   Magical Beasts and Where to Find Them  Quidditch Through the Ages  These 3 books are companions to the Harry Potter

series. Beedle the Bard is supposed to be wizard fairy tales and this book plays a role in Book 7 of the HP series. The other 2 are supposed to be Hogwarts textbooks or pleasure reading. They are all excellent reading if you just can’t get enough of Harry Potter!
