What is the title of J.K. Rowling’s 2001 book about wizarding creatures?
Answer
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
J.K. Rowling’s 2001 book about wizarding creatures is Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
The book is presented as a Hogwarts textbook written by Newt Scamander, a fictional magizoologist. It provides short entries about magical creatures, including their classifications and characteristic behavior, while using humorous annotations attributed to Harry, Ron, and Hermione.
Rowling published the book in support of Comic Relief, alongside Quidditch Through the Ages. Both were designed as companion volumes connected to the fictional Hogwarts library rather than as installments in the main Harry Potter narrative.
The title later became the basis for a film series beginning in 2016. The films expand Newt Scamander into a major character, but the original book is a compact fictional reference work rather than a conventional novel.
