NOW OOP [Out Of Print]. JK ROWLING & HARRY POTTER ~ Two UK First Edition, First Printing paperback books for sale (both were only ever released in paperback in the UK) The books cannot be purchased in shops now, as they are out of print (OOP)! and getting rarer by the day!!!!!!! "Quidditch Through the Ages" ~ This limited edition is a copy of the volume in Hogwarts School Library where it is consulted by young Quidditch fans on an almost daily basis. If you have ever asked yourself where the Golden Snitch came from, or wondered about the evolution of the flying broomstick!, or wanted to study 'Anti-Muggle Precautions', or wanted to know the difference between ancient and modern quaffles: then you will need a copy of this book to find all the answers! Both books have foreward's written by Dumbledore himself! (FAB FUN). ~~ "Fantastic beasts and Where to Find Them" , Resides in almost every wizarding household in the country. Now, for a limited period only, Muggles too have the chance to discover where the Quintaped lives, what the Puffskein eats, and why it is best not to leave milk out for a Knarl!" It says on the first page of this book that it belongs to 'Harry Potter', but not for long if you buy it! it'll belong to you. In the introduction to the author 'Newt Scamander, it says that he was born in 1897, which makes him incredibly old! he must be about 114 years old by now. [Crikey!!]. This book tells you about all the different characters you meet all the way through your harry Potter journey: Doxy: [sometimes known as a biting fairy] - [OUCH!], FWOOPER: is an African bird with extremely vivid plumage; orange, pink, lime green or yellow !!, and you will meet a little Gnome which is a little garden pest, and can grow to the amazing height of one foot [12 inches]. Goodness me., or a wee Kelpie!, sounds friendly but he's a real demon ! [EEK! HELP!], and if you're not careful; you might run in to a YETI! [AAARRRGGGHHH!!!] ~ In this little book you will meet all the characters through Harry Potters wizardly travels. You will know all about each of them in great detail as this book is your A to Z of them all. ~ Both "Quidditch Through The Ages" and "Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them" have those all important numbers : 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, meaning that these are both TRUE FIRST EDITION, FIRST PRINTINGS.
