Tales of Beedle the Bard, VERY limeted edition

[Ghoulish Delight]

Story

Author J K Rowling has hand-written and illustrated just seven copies of the Tales Of Beedle The Bard. It is her first work since the last Harry Potter book was published in July.

While one copy will go under the hammer at Sotheby's in London next month, the others will be given away by Rowling to those most closely connected with the Potter books.

The Tales Of Beedle The Bard played a central role in the seventh book about the boy wizard, Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows. A volume, which contains five wizarding fairytales, was left to Hermione Granger by Hogwarts headteacher Albus Dumbledore, and provided clues to help Harry and his friends defeat his nemesis Lord Voldemort.
