From the library of the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry come these two books by Newt Scamander and Kennilworthy Whisp (Rowling's pseudonyms). These are the same textbooks used by Harry Potter and the other Hogwarts students.
Q: If you have ever asked yourself where the Golden Snitch came from, how the Bludgers came into existence, or why the Wigtown Wanderers have pictures of meat cleavers on their robes, you need QUIDDITCH THROUGH THE AGES. This invaluable volume is consulted by young Quidditch fans on an almost daily basis.
F: A copy of FANTASTIC BEASTS & WHERE TO FIND THEM resides in almost every wizarding household in the country. Now Muggles too have the chance to discover where the Quintaped lives, what the Puffskein eats, and why it is best not to leave milk out for a Knarl.
