So author of the Harry Potter series, J.K. Rowling announced on her website yesterday plans for the release of "The Tales of Beedle the Bard." The Tales of Beedle the Bard will be published on December 4, 2008, by Rowling's charity, Children's High Level Group, in an exclusive agreement with publishers Bloomsbury and Scholastic and with Amazon. All proceeds will go to the charity. There will be a regular edition ($7.59) as well as a limited number of collector's edition ($100, which will include 10 additional illustrations not featured in the standard or even the original group of books).
According to Rowling, "the new edition will include the Tales themselves, translated from the original runes by Hermione Granger, and with illustrations by me, but also notes by Professor Albus Dumbledore," these notes were of course found in his papers following his death.
