The Tales of Beedle the Bard

For anyone that has read the final Harry Potter book the Tale of Beedle the Bard will be familar. JK Rowlings has hand written seven copies of this book. The first six went to friends that were helpful during the writing of the Potter books. The seventh was auctioned off and the procedures are going to a charity for children. Amazon.com won the auction, the book went for close to four million dollars. You can see more about it here. (Actual pictures of the book and the pages.)
