Great "behind the scenes" book. Lots of flipbooks/pull outs to look at such as the Marauders Map, Hogwarts invitations, and store ads from Diagon Alley.

This is a must-read for any Potter fan! It's dull of behind-the-scenes tidbits that will bring a smile to any fans face! It is a mist for Potter heads everywhere!

A great book that takes one to the heart of the process of filming my favorite movie series of all time! I especially liked the introductions by Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint; those were very emotional for me to read.

ISBN? - 9780593066485

General Subject/s? - Film / Harry Potter / Companion Book

Title? - The special effects and props that create the Harry Potter films.

General Analysis? - This isn't as good as Harry Potter: Page to Screen as a reference guide to Harry Potter, but it is very visual, possibly for a younger audience. The visual impact adds information to the character profiles and the places in which the stories took place, like at the Yule Ball, at Hogwarts and Little Hangleton graveyard, as well as props like the Marauder's Map and the Letter from Hogwarts.

Recommend? – Yes, really enjoyable.

Absolutely fantastic! If you are a fan of Harry Potter, this is a must have and read! It has so many great little details in it and is basically a scrap book with ALL sorts of requisites (Harry 's Howard Letter, Marauders Map, an invitation to the yule ball, a Weasleys Weezes leaflet, ...). I'm mind blown by everything in this book!

This book is definitely worth it's money - if only for the little pieces of paraphernalia inside it: the Marauder's Map, a collection of Educational Decrees and more. But to add to that an insight into the creation of the films - especially the production designer, Stuart Craig's designs - made it absolutely wonderful.
