Hogwarts Through The Years Poster Book Updated

This is a useful book if you're reading the Harry Potter books out of sequence, like me, and can't remember who a character is or what they look like - this book becomes your visual aide. Personally, I think the book is misnamed - it's a "picture" book instead of a "poster" book. But, even so, it's a useful item and tries to cover most of the Harry Potter bases of heroes, villians, etc. For the money, if you're into Harry Potter items, this should be a worthwhile purchase. I'd recommend it...just not too wildly.

Great Edition, Great Pics

This book is full of great shots from the history of Hogwarts. Organization of the sections is well-planned and picture selections are superb. Get this one, it's a keeper and collector must-have.

Harry Potter Yearbook

"Harry Potter Through the Years Poster Book" is laid out a lot like a student yearbook, except each of the main characters has pages devoted exclusively to him/her, showing them in scenes from the first movie to the sixth. Also included are photos of the castle and grounds, the professors, the Death Eaters, the Order of the Phoenix, the Ministry of Magic and the magical creatures. There is not much in the way of text, except to label the people or scenes. These are not photos that can be ripped out. Again, think yearbook. They are full color pages of scenes out of the movie on thick, matte paper. In fact, it is so yearbook that one photo of Parvati Patil looked like a zoomed in shot of her in a low resolution group picture. The photo was grainy and a little out of focus. Of all the scenes she`s in, I wonder why they couldn't come up with a nicer shot of her to print. Fortunately, that was the only photo I noticed like that. This is a great book to peruse through and any Harry Potter fan (my son included) would enjoy flipping through and reminiscing. If you are looking for a Harry Potter yearbook, this is a nice one to have.

Hogwarts Through The Years Poster Book (Harry Potter Movie V) by

i just love this harry potter item its like an albun with photos of hogwarts through the years.

Good for the Avid Harry Potter Movie Fan

"Hogwarts Through the Years" is a nice keepsake for any die-hard fan of the Harry Potter films. It features photos from all five movies to date. There are pictures of the Hogwarts staff and students of the various Houses, not just Gryffindor. The book has a glossy hardcover, which gives it a nice appearance. But I can only give this book four stars because some of the photos included are just horrible. Instead of high-quality images, some of the photos of students are nothing but cropped, low-res screen caps from the movies. They're blurry and look bad juxtaposed with the higher-quality images. It looks like Scholastic threw this book together in a hurry to coincide with the box-office release of "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix". But since the price is low, and it's a hardcover book, it's not that bad of a deal. Especially if you love the films.
