In the kingdom of Cornucopia, famous for its delicious food, all is not as perfect as it seems.

What a beautifully well written and thoughtfully illustrated piece by J.K. Rowling. From start to finish, I enjoyed this most entertaining and thought provoking story. Set in a world so far away, the fantasy and imagination was just fantastic throughout the pages. I throughly enjoyed reading the story and emphasizing with the characters. Excellent work, would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to lose themselves in a a fantasy novel.
Bal W Reader –
This is a great book… I am a fan of the Potter series and this reads more like a fairy tale, but is really good. There are some really wicked characters that have interesting parts in the story… and the idea of the book is cool. But without giving too much away, I simply recommend to all readers.
