I'm not into heavy reading, as you'll quickly discover if you read "The Tales of Beedle the Bard", by J.K. Rowling. I believe this is Rowling's first book following the 7th and final Harry Potter book. If you've read the final book, you'll hopefully remember that "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" plays a small, but important role in the book.
"The Tales of Beedle the Bard" are a collection of Wizard Fairy Tales, from the same world as Harry Potter. They are fairly simple and designed for children. What makes this book fun is that Rowling added commentary from Professor Albus Dumbledore after each story. The commentary is witty and provides further insight into the world of our favorite teenage wizard.
If you've read and enjoyed all 7 of the Harry Potter books, pick this one up. I think you'll enjoy it. If you haven't read all 7 of the Harry Potter books...what's wrong with you? Just give in and read them, it's pointless to resist!
