New J. K. Rowling Book

[Carol]

Donna:
> I received notice from Barnes and Noble that a new book, The Tales
of Beedle the Bard, is scheduled to be released on December 4, 2008. 
The book contains all five tales left to Hermione by Dumbledore in
Deathly Hallows.  This may be old news but it's new to me.

Carol responds:
Yes, translated by Hermione from runes to English, with footnotes and
(presumably) marginal notes by Dumbledore from the copy he gave to
Hermione. I suspect that the best part will be the marginalia.

Actually, of course, the runes are a script not a language but JKR
calls it a translation.

See, Jen, I did it, but from the tinyurl website and not the webpage
for the news story. 

Carol, not intending to buy the book at present and hoping that the
tinyurl works
