They are exactly what I expect when I see “illustrated edition” tagged to a title. The short of it - I LOVE the MinaLima editions of the Harry Potter series. Instead, I’ll just focus on the illustrations and structure of the physical book and how those things affected my reading experience. Since the Harry Potter books are so popular and I’ve discussed the story several times on here, this won’t be a typical review because I won’t discuss the story - plot, characters, and all that. If a new edition is published, I’ll most likely get it, so yea, I’m looking forward to the upcoming Jim Dale illustrated version of the fifth book, which I think is coming out this year in October, and am hoping MinaLima will do illustrated versions of all the books and that a third one is forthcoming. The Harry Potter series is catnip for me. A gift to be treasured by Harry Potter fans and book lovers of all ages!ĭesigned and illustrated by award-winning design studio MinaLima - best known for establishing the visual graphic style of the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts films - these editions are sure to be a keepsake for Harry Potter fans, a beautiful addition to any collector's bookshelf, and an enchanting way to introduce the beloved series to a new generation of readers.And finally, I’m discussing the last books I read last year - the MinaLima illustrated editions of the first and second Harry Potter books. The fantastic edition of Chamber of Secrets features over 150 beautiful full color illustrations and eight interactive paper craft elements featuring the Whomping Willow, the Weasleys' Burrow, and more. Rowling's complete and unabridged text of The Sorcerer's Stone is accompanied by full-color illustrations on nearly every page and eight exclusive, interactive paper craft elements: Readers will open Harry's Hogwarts letter, reveal the magical entryway to Diagon Alley, make a sumptuous feast appear in the Great Hall, and more.

In these stunning new editions of the first two Harry Potter books, experience the story as never before.
