Allan Zola Kronzek, Elizabeth Kronzek

Behind Harry's fantasy world lies a centuries-old treasure trove of history, folklore, and mythology. Those without access to the Hogwarts library can now read the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by reading the book "The Wizarding

The curious reader will find in the “Wizard’s Handbook” an explanation of all the miraculous phenomena from the Harry Potter books and will discover a wealth of interesting and surprising information. 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.

Magic wands, like those sold in Corner Street, were once made by Druid wizards from the sacred yew tree. Love potions were first made in ancient Egypt and Greece. Books about spells and curses were very popular in the Middle Ages. After reading this book from Amulet to Zombies, you will learn:

  • where to find a basilisk today
  • how the Danish King Frederick II. financed the war with a unicorn horn
  • who was Merlin?
  • how to safely pull out a mandrake root
  • 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.
