The Tales of Beedle the Bard have been favourite bedtime reading in
wizarding households for centuries. Full of magic and trickery,
these classic tales both entertain and instruct, and remain as
captivating to young wizards today as they were when Beedle first
put quill to parchment in the fifteenth century. There are five
tales in all: 'The Tale of the Three Brothers' Harry Potter fans
will know from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows; 'The Fountain
of Fair Fortune', 'The Warlock's Hairy Heart', 'The Wizard and the
Hopping Pot' and 'Babbitty Rabbitty and her Cackling Stump'
complete the collection. These narrative gems are accompanied by
explanatory notes by Professor Albus Dumbledore (included by kind
permission of the Hogwarts Headmaster's archive). His illuminating
thoughts reveal the stories to be much more than just simple moral
tales, and are sure to make Babbitty Rabbitty and the slug-belching
Hopping Pot as familiar to Muggles as Snow White and Cinderella.
This edition of these much loved fairy tales from the wizarding
world pairs J.K. Rowling's original text with gorgeous jacket art
by Jonny Duddle and line illustrations throughout by Tomislav
Tomic. The Tales of Beedle the Bard is published in aid of the
Lumos (link to wearelumos.org), an international children's charity
(registered charity number 1112575) founded in 2005 by J.K Rowling.
Lumos is dedicated ending the institutionalisation of children, a
harmful practice that affects the lives of up to eight million
disadvantaged children around the world who live in institutions
and orphanages, many placed there as a result of poverty,
disability, disease, discrimination and conflict; very few are
orphans. Lumos works to reunite children with their families,
promote family-based care alternatives and help authorities to
reform their systems and close down institutions and orphanages.
