Look inside the Book:

Containing clues that were to prove crucial to Harry Potter's final mission to destroy Lord Voldemort's Horcruxes, "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" is the volume of five wizarding fairy tales left to Hermione Granger by Albus Dumbledore in the seventh and final book, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows". Only one - "The Tale of the Three Brothers" - is recounted in the book. In "The Tales of Beedle the Bard", the four remaining stories are revealed for the very first time.
