This is another paragraph Book Description: Tucked in its own case disguised as a wizarding textbook found in the Hogwarts library, the Collector's Edition includes an exclusive reproduction of J.K. Rowling's handwritten introduction, as well as 10 additional illustrations not found in the Standard Edition or the original. Opening the case reveals a velvet bag embroidered with J.K. Rowling s signature, in which sits the piece de resistance: your very own copy of The Tales of Beedle the Bard, complete with metal skull, corners, and clasp; replica gemstones; and emerald ribbon. As a special gift for fans, the Collector's edition also includes a set of 10 ready-for-framing prints of J.K. Rowling's illustrations, enclosed in a velvet-lined pocket in the lid of the outer case. Offering the trademark wit and imagination familiar to Rowling's legions of readers--as well as Aesop's wisdom and the occasional darkness of the Brothers Grimm--each of these five tales reveals a lesson befitting children and parents alike: the strength gained with a trusted friendship, the redemptive power of love, and the true magic that exists in the hearts of all of us.

The Tales of Beedle the Bard is a collection of children's stories by British author J.K. Rowling. It is a supplementary book to the Harry Potter series and was first mentioned in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the final book of the series. The book purports to be the same children's storybook that belonged to the character Hermione Granger within the fictional universe of Harry Potter, containing five fairy tales that have underlying significance to the themes and characters of the series.
