Description
“Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” is a fantasy book written by J.K. Rowling. It’s a fictional textbook from the wizarding world of Harry Potter, authored by a fictional character named Newt Scamander, who is a magizoologist (a wizard who studies magical creatures).
Originally published in 2001, “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” is presented as one of Harry Potter’s textbooks during his time at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The book serves as a guide to various magical creatures found in the wizarding world, providing descriptions of their appearance, behavior, and habitat.
In addition to detailing the characteristics of magical creatures, the book also includes annotations and comments from Harry Potter and his friends, adding humor and insight to the text. The book gives readers a glimpse into the rich and diverse magical ecosystem created by J.K. Rowling.
In 2016, “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” was adapted into a film of the same name, serving as a prequel to the Harry Potter series. The film follows the adventures of Newt Scamander as he travels to New York City with a case full of magical creatures, inadvertently getting involved in a conflict between wizards and No-Majs (non-magical people). The success of the film led to the creation of a series of “Fantastic Beasts” movies, expanding the wizarding world beyond the confines of Hogwarts and exploring new characters and storylines.
