Covers Revealed For ‘Tales of Beedle The Bard’ Illustrated Editions

As previously reported on Leaky, both Bloomsbury and Scholastic recently announced illustrated editions of The Tales of Beedle The Bard (coming this October), and today revealed the covers for each edition!

Bloomsbury’s U.K. edition is illustrated by Chris Riddell, and we recently received a first look at the art within this new edition of J.K. Rowling’s wizarding world fairytales. Take a look at the cover below:

Scholastic’s edition of The Tales of Beedle the Bard hadn’t yet been officially announced (though we spotted the book in an Amazon listing). The U.S. publisher officially revealed today that their edition is illustrated by Hans Christian Andersen Medalist, Lisbeth Zwerger:
