Magic wands and wizards, ghosts and brooms, hippogriffs and herbalism, have a wonderful history rooted in legends, literature or real events from hundreds or even thousands of years ago.

  • who wore the first invisibility cloak
  • how to get rid of goblins
  • why ancient peoples were afraid of owls

As an engaging guide through Harry's wondrous world, the book "The Wizard's Handbook" is a must-read for any fan of J.K. Rowling's works.
