New Harry Potter books are coming out this year and they look magical

Harry Potter fans, rejoice - there's three magical new books based on the series that are heading your way.

And they're arriving just in time for the holiday season, too. Unfortunately, they're not quite based on the Boy Who Lived himself, but rather the magical world around him. The three new releases are going to be more of an extension on J.K. Rowling's material, including some enchanting pop-ups and behind-the-scenes secrets. Insight Editions are publishing Harry Potter: A Pop-Up Guide to Hogwarts, Harry Potter: Creatures: A Paper Scene Book and Harry Potter: Imagining Hogwarts: A Beginner's Guide to Moviemaking. Harry Potter: A Pop-Up Guide to Hogwarts by pop-up artist Matthew Reinhardt is an "exhilarating, interactive guide" to the famous school of magic. It includes pop-up recreations of key locations, like Hogwarts and the Forbidden Forest. Meanwhile, Harry Potter: Creatures: A Paper Scene Book is all about the mystical creatures in the wizarding world, with some paper-cut scenes from the films and behind the scenes facts. The third and final new book is Harry Potter: Imagining Hogwarts: A Beginner's Guide to Moviemaking, is a practical guide into the movie making process for kids - and then it gives them a chance to do it themselves. The book, by Bryan Michael Stoller, goes behind-the-scenes of the production of a film and how all of the little pieces in the process fit together.
