Review:
This is the second book in the Magical Film Projections range and if you're familiar with the previous book (J.K. Rowling's Wizarding World: Magical Film Projections: Creatures) then you'll know exactly what to expect from this one. In case you haven't come across these books before let me give you a brief overview. These books don't really include much reading material but they do contain 6 illustrations printed on clear plastic (along with a blank sheet for you to draw your own image on). The idea is to shine a torch on the plastic sheet to see the image projected onto your wall or ceiling. Kids can then use the sample text included or their imaginations to act out popular scenes from the books and movies.
In this case the scenes all relate to Patronus Charms so it includes: Professor Lupin protecting Harry from the Dementors on the Hogwarts Express; Harry learning how to produce a Patronus in class; the stag Patrous Harry creates when he travels back in time with Ron and Hermione; Hermione's Otter Patronus; Luna with her Hare Patronus; and finally Professor Snape with his Doe.
I had more success getting the images to project this time around (I was a little disappointed with the first book). I'm not sure if that's because I've had practice or whether these images just come up clearer but I found holding the torch further away from the book produces a better image. I still found the pictures went blurry if I tried to make them too large but I think kids will have a lot of fun playing with these books anyway. As a huge Potterhead and someone who has collected an unreasonable amount of HP merchandise this was a great addition to my shelves.
It wasn't easy to take photos but I wanted to give you an idea what to expect from the book so I've done my best:
Professor Lupin protecting Harry on the Hogwarts Express
Harry learning to conjure his Patronus to fight the Boggart in class
Harry's Stag Patronus
Hermione's Otter Patronus
Luna and her Hare Patronus
Professor Snape and his Doe Patronus
