Candlewick Press will publish a series of interactive children's books based on the upcoming Harry Potter spin-off film Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
The film, written by J.K. Rowling, was inspired by her "Hogwarts textbook," also entitled Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, which was published in 2001. It follows the adventures of Newt Scamander as several of his magical creatures escape in New York, and will be released in November.
The books are part of a global publishing program based on J.K. Rowling's Wizarding World and Warner Brothers Consumer Products. The agreement is for several titles in novelty and interactive formats that go behind the scenes of the film, and publication will start this October.
Candlewick looks forward to bringing these to young fans of J.K. Rowling's Wizarding World across the U.S. It's exactly what they'll be looking for this autumn and holiday season - books of extremely high quality, unique and beautifully presented content and innovative play value.
