Synopsis
In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Hermione is given The Tales of Beedle the Bard, a book containing five fairy tales: ‘The Wizard and the Hopping Pot,’ ‘The Fountain of Fair Fortune,’ ‘The Warlock’s Hairy Heart,’ ‘Babbitty Rabbitty and her Cackling Stump’ and ‘The Tale of the Three Brothers.’ The last one, ‘The Tale of the Three Brothers’ is the story that introduces the Deathly Hallows – three magical objects that will cause the person who has them all to become the “master of death.”
Originally, there were only seven copies of this book made, but in late 2008, it was released to the mass market. This book includes all five fairy tales, as well as commentary on each one by Dumbledore.
