I found this on amazon.com. the pictures itself are amazing, and I can't believe JK Rowling not only refered to these fairy tales in DH but also created these Beautiful books! you have got to take a look!

Wow that book is simply gorgeous. I hope at some point it will be mass published for all of us to enjoy. :)

Well, as I'm not likely to ever acquire a copy of the book (though I'd like to read the stories) what really comes to my mind, as an aspiring leatherworker, is that I'd like to try my hand at making a book that looks like this one!

I know what I want for christmas!
Haha.
But seriously, I really hope that she mass produces these books but without the pictures and such because then the people that she gave it to and the person who wins the auction will really have something special and us common folks could read the stories.

I think that it would be perfectly possible for her to have some sort of arrangement to have a percentage of the money made from a cheaper mass-produced version to go to CV, and I really hope she does decide todo that. I dont think it would devalue these seven at all, because the uniqueness of themis that they are all hand-written and hand-illustrated and just plain beautiful.

I ould be perfectly happy with a simple cardboard-ish hardback book with Xerox-type pages (so we still had the handwriting, lol)and like a picture of the cover. Or hell even a paperback, lol.

I'm willing to pay lots of money for it, but I definatel dont have THAT much, lol.
