    Harry Potter fans across the country can now get their hands on exclusive new and original writing from J.K. Rowling. Wonderbook: Book of Spells comes to life as you read, allowing you to cast spells with your PlayStation®Move Motion Controller which becomes your own magic wand. Go on a fantastic journey to read and learn the secrets of wizardry and the art of spell-casting, just like a student at Hogwarts. Wonderbook is a powerful storytelling vehicle and tool for the imagination which brings to life a thousand stories in one physical book with a brand new series of adventures and experiences to explore.

    Book of Spells provides students with a safe environment in which to read, discover, learn and practise spells they already know and love such as Incendio, Wingardium Leviosa and Expelliarmus, as well as discover mischievous notes and spells scribbled into the margins by previous Hogwarts students. In addition to humorous anecdotal facts relating to the spells, J.K. Rowling has written a conundrum to lead you through the experience, providing insight into what makes a successful witch or wizard, and inviting fans to journey through the book and unlock new tales at the end of each chapter rewarding students for their successful spell-casting.

    Bringing mystery and discovery to your living room, the titles will draw you into new worlds, and give you the chance to live in the stories you love.
