Not only did I really enjoy reading the stories, which are like our fairy tales - only for wizarding children, I had a lot of fun reading the Commentary by Professor Dumbledore. Not only does it provide a lot of insight in the wizarding communities response to the stories, the footnotes to his commentary cracked me up!
Fans of the Potter series will definitely recognize the last story, "The Tale of Three brothers." I can't remember though if any of the other stories appear in the Potter series. I tend to have a sketchy memory for details. I could blame it on the large number of books I read, but I have friends who read just as many and more and they remember the stories much better than I do! So I guess I just have a poor memory for story details. That's fine with me though, because it just makes re-reading books that much better!

Huh... sounds pretty interesting. I have just repicked up my love of reading, though usually I get too lazy ;) I still need to read the HP books (yes, I know...I'm lame) but this sounds like a good adition. thanks for the review.
I was also intrigued by this book. Sounds like a fun book from your review!
