Admire their creativity and skill as you gaze upon the finished works of food art. From the Ravenclaw scarf to her famous Spectrespecs and is that a copy of *The Quibbler* we spy? This Luna inspired bake captures her personality perfectly.

## Winning recipes
At the end of a nail-biting season, it was revealed that Zoë and Jordan were crowned the winners of Wizards of Baking. If anything makes us believe that magic is real, it was their finale showstopper. Not only did they have to recreate an iconic scene in the Great Hall, but it also had to be six feet tall! This talented duo took the mammoth task in their stride, creating a magnificent bake that even snowed. 

Now you can learn from these brilliant bakers and make your own culinary magic. Every witch or wizard needs a wand but why not a wand that tastes particularly delicious? Inspired by Zoë and Jordan’s bake in the very first episode, create your own out of shortbread.

Bloomsbury announce Levi Pinfold as the new illustrator of the Harry Potter Illustrated Editions series

WEB-NEWS-bloomsbury-announce-levi-pinfold-as-new-harry-potter-illustrator

levi-pinfold-announcement-photo-illustrated-editions-web-landscape

bloomsbury-announce-levi-pinfold-as-new-harry-potter-illustrator-text-section-1

From the moment that the Harry Potter Illustrated Editions series launched in 2015 with *Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone*, it became a global phenomenon. Jim Kay truly captured the essence of the wizarding world with his spectacular artwork that not only included breathtaking scenes and gorgeously detailed characters but truly brought the stories to life. It’s no wonder that these editions are so beloved by fans and new readers alike.  

After ten years at the helm, Jim Kay made the difficult decision to step back from the Harry Potter Illustrated Editions to focus on his mental health. The search then began to find a worthy successor to pick up the mantle and complete the journey. Today, Bloomsbury have announced that they have found that person. The multi-award-winning artist, Levi Pinfold, will illustrate the final two books in the series.  

Eagle-eyed fans might have spotted Levi’s work already. He has contributed to both Bloomsbury’s Harry Potter Hogwarts House Editions and *The Harry Potter Wizarding Almanac*, where he used his keen eye and incredible technical ability to capture the imagination of fans worldwide. 

Excited to be part of the journey, Levi has given us an insight into his vision for the next in the series of illustrated editions:

‘Being given the keys to Hogwarts and asked to explore feels exactly how it sounds… magical. These books are like old friends, and I feel incredibly lucky to attempt to share what I see in them. Visually speaking, *Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince* is like watching a firework display on the coldest, darkest of nights. That sense of wonder and awe is something I’d love to share with readers, my younger self and my own kids.’ 

With *Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince* set to be published in October 2026, releasing simultaneously with Scholastic in the US, fans will be able to see Levi’s artwork in all its splendour. For now, here is a sneak peek at what you can expect in the latest instalment of the series. 

HP6-illustrated-edition-levi-pinfold-dumbledores-office-web-landscape

bloomsbury-announce-levi-pinfold-as-new-harry-potter-illustrator-text-section-2

It’s clear that this series is in safe hands. The swirling mists of Dumbledore’s [Pensieve](/fact-file/objects/pensieve). The ethereal colour palette. The intricate details such as [Fawkes](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/fawkes) on his perch. Levi has certainly captured the magic of the stories.   

We’re not the only ones who recognises Levi’s talent. As Jim Kay himself recalls:  

‘An art director first showed me Levi’s work many years back when I was visiting a publisher. When he pulled open the drawer and I saw this beautiful piece of painting, I was blown away. His work has since then become so important to me, as he’s everything that you could wish for in an illustrator. It’s a huge comfort to know he is working on the Illustrated Editions, for which I’m so grateful, but also as a fan of both Potter and Pinfold, I’m really excited!’ 

With *Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince* set to be published next year, keep your eyes peeled as pre-order information and further details will be coming soon.  

In the meantime, if you would like to start your illustrated collection or just want further information, [you can find it on the Bloomsbury website](https://www.harrypotter.com/linkout?destination=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bloomsbury.com%2Fuk%2Fharry-potter%2Fillustrated-editions%2F%3Futm_source%3Dwwd_web%26utm_medium%3Dnewsarticle%26utm_campaign%3Dbloomsbury%26utm_content%3Dillustratededitions).

Children’s audio platform Yoto launches the Hogwarts Library Collection

WEB-NEWS-yoto-launches-hogwarts-library-collection

yoto-hogwart-library-collection-header-web-landscape

yoto-launches-hogwarts-library-collection-text-section-1

Following the award-winning audio platform Yoto’s highly successful release of all seven Harry Potter audiobooks in August (which happens to be one of the best performing releases), today they have launched their latest lot of audio magic – The Hogwarts Library Collection.  

Working together with Pottermore Publishing, these classic volumes from the wizarding world are now available as three brand new Yoto cards to download and play. In this selection of Yoto cards you can find *Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them*, *Quidditch Through the Ages* and *The Tales of Beedle the Bard*. All of these are available to buy separately or as the full Hogwarts Library Collection.  

Brilliant for Harry Potter fans ages eight and up, Jessica Tarrant, the Content Director at Yoto describes this as ‘the perfect addition to any young Harry Potter fan’s library’ with Yoto continuing to ‘be a bridge between young listeners and the wizarding world’. 

All that young listeners need to do is simply slot the card into their Yoto player, download the stories and then immerse themselves in the magic and wonder of the wizarding world.

## What can you find in the Hogwarts Library? 

### *Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them* 

Want to know the difference between an [Antipodean Opaleye](/fact-file/creatures/antipodean-opaleye) and a [Hungarian Horntail](/fact-file/creatures/hungarian-horntail)? Keen to brush up on your [Niffler](/fact-file/creatures/niffler) knowledge? Or are you just desperate to understand what makes a Flobberworm tick? Then *Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them* by [Newt Scamander](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/newt-scamander) is the perfect textbook for you. And who better to narrate them than the actor who played the Magizoologist himself, Eddie Redmayne. If you keep your ears peeled, you might hear the sounds of a few fantastic beasts in the background. [Find out more here](https://www.pottermorepublishing.com/publications/9781781108925-4-fantastic-beasts-and-where-to-find-them/?utm_source=wwd_web&utm_medium=newsarticle&utm_campaign=yoto&utm_term=hogwartslibrarycollection). 

yoto-launches-hogwarts-library-collection-text-section-3

### *Quidditch Through the Ages* 
Next, we have one of the most popular books in the Hogwarts Library – *Quidditch Through the Ages*. If you have a question about [Quidditch](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/quidditch) – whether that’s exactly how many times [Ron Weasley’s](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/ron-weasley) favourite Quidditch team, the [Chudley Cannons](/fact-file/magical-miscellany/the-chudley-cannons), have lost the League or how to perform the perfect Wronski Feint, you’ll find it here. Narrated by Andrew Lincoln, this audiobook also has more than an hour and a half in extra bonus content. [Click here to read more about it](https://www.pottermorepublishing.com/publications/9781781109908-4-quidditch-through-the-ages/?utm_source=wwd_web&utm_medium=newsarticle&utm_campaign=yoto&utm_term=hogwartslibrarycollection).

yoto-launches-hogwarts-library-collection-text-section-4

### *The Tales of Beedle the Bard* 
Last but in no way least, we have *The Tales of Beedle the Bard*. Narrated by a whole host of recognisable voices including Jude Law, who is reprising his role as [Albus Dumbledore](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/albus-dumbledore), this is the wizarding world’s answer to *Grimm’s Fairytales*. With tales such as *Babbitty Rabbitty and her Cackling Stump* and *The Tale of the Three Brothers* (which played a rather important role in the Harry Potter stories), this audiobook is sure to charm and educate its listeners in equal measure. Find out more about this edition, which was translated from the original runes by [Hermione Granger](/fact-file/characters-and-pets/hermione-granger) herself, [right here](https://www.pottermorepublishing.com/publications/9781781103791-4-the-tales-of-beedle-the-bard/?utm_source=wwd_web&utm_medium=newsarticle&utm_campaign=yoto&utm_term=hogwartslibrarycollection). 

yoto-launches-hogwarts-library-collection-text-section-5

All three audiobooks will be available for purchase individually or as a collection from today, the 6th March, [on the Yoto website](https://yotoplay.com/harrypotter?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=WWD). Each of the cards has been cleverly designed to work with the Yoto Player 3rd Generation, Yoto Mini (2024 Edition) and the free Yoto app.

Any visit to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is an out-of-this-world experience, but thanks to these new magical enhancements, Harry Potter fans can live their wizarding and witching fantasies in a whole new way.  

From 1st March, visitors can try out new interactive spell-casting across different sections of the parks, such as Hogsmeade at Universal Islands of Adventure, Diagon Alley at Universal Studios Florida, and – once Epic Universe opens later this year - [Place Cachée in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Ministry of Magic too! ](https://www.harrypotter.com/news/universal-epic-universe-reveals-more-details-about-the-wizarding-world-of-harry-potter-ministry-of-magic)

Previous visitors to [Universal Orlando Resort](https://www.harrypotter.com/discover-experiences/experiences/the-wizarding-world-of-harry-potter-universal-orlando-resort) may be aware of the interactive wands already (in fact, you may already be an expert!) but now, you’ll be able to cast even more spells and discover new ways to unlock magical moments.  

Available in four designs, these new special wands will give guests an even more immersive experience while visiting the parks’ locations. Using unique light and haptic effects, budding spell-casters can use the Universal Orlando Resort App to try out the magic, thanks to the app’s new feature, [Universal Play.](https://www.universalorlando.com/web/en/gb/things-to-do/universal-play/wand-magic) And there will be opportunities all across the park to cast spells, from tackling pixies in Hogsmeade to conjuring a Patronus in Knockturn Alley. 

Universal-Studios-next-gen-wand-key-art-3

second-generation-wands-come-to-universal-studios-text-section-3

With every spell that you cast, you’ll even gain Hogwarts house points within the app, competing against fellow park-visitors during your stay. What competitive fun!  

And you’ll be able to unlock new spells and document all your magical skills too – which will all appear Iin an interactive Magical Spellbook.  

Visitors will be able to find the Second Generation Interactive Wands at Ollivander’s Wand Shop (naturally) and across various other locations in the resort.

With the North American tour running from February 2025 all the way through to 2026, you can expect this article to keep updating with any latest news or information – don’t forget to check back (a Remembrall would be useful here)!

## What is *Harry Potter and the Cursed Child*?
We’re sure that while most of you are aware of what *Harry Potter and the Cursed Child* is, there’s no harm in a quick refresher – it’s exactly the kind of thing Hermione would do. *Cursed Child* is the eighth Harry Potter story. A play, it was inspired by the original story by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany. 

Set 19 years after the *Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows*, Harry, Ron and Hermione are back. Although this time they are joined by the next wizarding generation. When Harry’s son, Albus, becomes friends with Draco Malfoy’s son, Scorpius, they end up on a brand-new adventure where the past, present and future are all at risk. With epic spells, friendship and theatrical magic that will make you question everything, this show will take you on a thrilling race through time.

## What is the North American tour?
While *Cursed Child* has always had a home across the pond in New York, it is now set to travel around North America on its 2025 tour.

Originally a play split into two parts, it has now been boldly restaged as just one thrilling show with just one ticket necessary. Take in all the wonder of Harry Potter in just one afternoon or evening.
