J.K. Rowling writes with her usual witty and charming style in this book of wizarding fairy tales--so, true stories in the wizarding world. Some of the stories are funny, some are serious. At the end of each story are Dumbledore's notes, which are interesting to read but I can't remember being especially blown away by them. Like most Harry Potter fans, I enjoy the hidden nuggets that Rowling leaves in her writing which act as clues to bigger mysteries. There are a few present in these stories, but I suspect that they would have more clout if the series wasn't already finished.
The most rewarding story is probably "The Tale of the Three Brothers" which first appeared in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It is a fun story to revisit, but it makes me want to read the entire series again.
