This definitive companion to the series of eight Harry Potter films contains behind-the-scenes magic and exclusive content, which will delight and amaze any fan. One can learn why the Yule Ball ice sculptures never melt, and where Galleons, Sickles and Knuts are `minted' alongside the inspiration behind Hogwarts Castle and the deadly Dementors. This hardback volume is written and designed in collaboration with the cast and crew, who brought JK Rowling's fantasy world vividly to life on the big screen; by delivering an enchanting interactive experience for readers. I was instantly transported into Harry's world wherein I uncovered exciting film-making secrets and discovered unpublished photographs and stunning artwork. This book also includes amazing props from the film set that are removable, facsimile reproductions such as;
* Yule Ball Invitation

and my favorite of all...

This collectable volume offers a privileged look at the Harry Potter films and the talented group of muggles that made movie magic. I highly recommend this book to all who are as obsessed as I am with the Harry Potter creation, as it is definitely worth EVERY SINGLE PENNY for the amount of detailed content is mind-blowing! Not only is the cover and binding absolutely beautiful, but inside is a treasure trove of EVERYTHING you could possibly think of within all the films. Perfectly balancing high-quality images and props with written information, this book is jam-packed with fascinating facts and is visually dazzling.
