Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban:As Harry, Ron, and Hermione navigate the mysteries surrounding the Prisoner of Azkaban, MinaLima's creative mastery adds an extra layer of enchantment to the narrative. Then, on Harry's eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news - Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. A beautifully designed reference book of all of the known spells cast in the Harry Potter films, books, video games and card games, as well as official spinoffs such as Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Yes, but we would need the books shipped to us to precisely measure them, then we will make custom jackets, place them on your books and ship them back to you. The magic starts here . Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone:An irresistible new edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone created with ultra-talented designers MinaLima, the design magicians behind the gorgeous visual graphic style of the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films. Milne, Asterix and others—and done it all in the wonderful Scots language which has the power to engage, excite and entertain readers of all ages.

I bought it for his birthday, and he was very happy about it! My kids, who have never been to Scotland, love it just as much as I do. I've included a photo of one hilarious paragraph from the first page of "Chaipter Ane: The Laddie Wha Lived" which describes the Dursleys. We are loving this Harry Potter book.

This is not a book filled with badly spelt English or just English with an accent but is a recognised language in it’s own right spoken throughout Scotland. It's a riot to read this out loud, which seems to be the only way we can read it around here.

:D My boyfriend is a big HP fan, so it was evident that this masterpiece can't be missing from his collection.

The whole book is like that. Although these Germanic languages evolved alongside each other and are closely related, English speakers will have trouble understanding this book if they have no prior understanding of Scots as our language is phonetic and has unique vocabulary. This translation is hilarious and filled with Scottish humour. A must read for Scots speakers or learners.

The translator did a fantastic job. :) I lived in Scotland for a wee bit 25 years ago and I'm pleasantly surprised how quickly I caught onto the accent again.
