As a Potterhead, I knew I had to read some of the extended canon. Fantastic Beasts was my first foray into anything outside of The Seven. It was a quick read with many delightful moments. A must for all Potterheads. The marginalia from our…

I loved this book! I found the magical creatures very interesting, and this book is filled with plentiful detail both in the illustrations and text.

It was unique, and I absolutely loved reading it. J.K. Rowling put a lot of thought into this world, therefore I'm glad I learnt something new from this book.

Not to be confused with the screenplay, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is a wonderful textbook filled with interesting creatures of the wizarding world. I really liked how they made Newt Scamander the author, as he was compiling…

I really enjoyed this book! Obviously I would have liked it better if it were a book, but it is still really good.

So, this wasn't originally part of my comment, but I felt I had to say something. There is a charity book written by J. K. Rowling (Though it says 'Newt Scamander on the front) that is a list of all the fantastic beasts that exist in the…

These little charity books written by J.K. Rowling to help raise money are super cute - and what makes them even more fun to read - are the side commentaries from Harry, Ron, and Hermione in the side margins of the book. This one would…

If you're following along with the screenplay series and the movies for this title, I suggest reading this book a few times or keeping a copy handy so you can keep up with the beasts. Great read.

Great fictional encyclopedia for magical beasts, I loved reading it. I don't get why people are saying that it is exactly like the movie, the movie is a story about the "author" Newt Scamander.

This is an amazing book. I feel a little guilty that I love it even more than the original series! Fantastic Beasts and Where To find Them's world is huge, although it takes place all in New York City. It's a fun, exciting, and…

The screenplay is quite literally a word for word translation of the movie on which it is based. Unlike Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Fantastic Beasts only adds to the lore of our favorite magical world, and does not arguably damage…
