A Book in Review: The Tales of Beedle the Bard

The Tales of Beedle the Bard By: J.K. Rowling
fiction: children, fantasy 111 pages
Book count: 70

Finally J.K. Rowling has made a book that is shorter then "War and Peace", and I wish it was longer. (Yes, I know most to all of her books were shorter, but you know what I mean.) This book is a collection of wizard fairy tales. One is the story of the three brothers who cheated Death that is also in the Harry Potter books. There is also notes from Dumbledore after each one on the meaning and/or history of the story. Like I said before I wish this book was longer, it is fun to read fairy tales where the witch is the good guy in the story. Also, buying this book gives money to a charity for children.
