Three New 'Harry Potter' Books Will Be Released Just In Time For Christmas

Hold the front page (of the Daily Prophet), tie notes to every owl you can find and share this news far and wide - three brand new Harry Potter books will be released in time for Christmas. Three whole books.

Die-hard Potterheads know it's not enough just to have the seven books, each documenting the boy wizard's school years. You need to have the whole collection at your fingertips to make sure you're ready to dip into news of the Boy Who Lived whenever you can.

Some swear by Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them, while others love reading through the Harry Potter and The Cursed Child play text, written by Jack Thorne and JK Rowling.

And now, hop onto your broomsticks and get down to the nearest bookstore to snap up the following three books, all brought you by Insight Editions.

Harry Potter: A Pop-Up Guide to Hogwarts by Matthew Reinhart, illustrated by Kevin M. Wilson, which will be released on 23 October.

Best-selling pop-up artist Matthew Reinhardt has created a 3D Harry Potter world, complete with fold-out Forbidden Forest and an actual Marauder's Map. The domes and turrets of Hogwarts collapse out to create the world of Harry Potter, all contained inside a book.

Then there's Harry Potter: Creatures: A Paper Scene Book, set to drop on 2 October.

This is a book for art and creature lovers, and includes multi-layer scenes, pictures from the film, stills and a description of creatures you might be able to find within in the book.

It's the sort of book you just want to keep on your coffee table and stroke, as it's so beautifully illustrated.

Finally, Harry Potter: Imagining Hogwarts: A Beginner's Guide to Moviemaking by Bryan Michael Stoller is set for release on 30 October.

If you've ever watched any films from the Harry Potter franchise and thought, 'Wow, wouldn't making movies be a cool job,' then this is the book for you or your kid.

This one teaches you in the most enjoyable way possible how to make costumes, storyboard and generally put together a film, making it fascinating reading even if you only have a passing interest in cinema.

So, there's literally something for everyone here. Collectively they will set you back $124.98 (£96) so would make the best gift in time for Christmas - altogether or individually depending on budget. We told you - something for all.
