As the name suggests, Quidditch through the Ages, purported to be written by Kennilworthy Whisp, is a guide to the rules and history of the great game. It was originally a short companion book to the main series, published in 2001 with all proceeds going to the British Comic Relief charity event and later to Lumos, a charity Rowling herself founded. The book brings to life a work mentioned in the pages of the canonical Harry Potter books, one that was frequently borrowed from the Hogwarts library.

I read the Hogwarts schoolbooks ages ago, and thought they were good silly fun, if a bit inconsequential. BUT, when I heard that Pottermore was releasing an audio version narrated by Andrew Lincoln (Rick Grimes, yo), I was all in.

Read on and see how a story about Quidditch could bring this franchise back in a big way.
Quidditch Through the Ages was re-released in 2018 as an audiobook containing additional material from the Pottermore website, most significantly an account of the 2014 Quidditch World Cup in the form of newspaper articles by Ginny Potter; the final match is portrayed through live commentary from Ginny and Rita Skeeter. In October 2020, an illustrated edition of the book was released with art by Emily Gravett.This book provides examples of:
The setting of this book is within the fantasy world Rowling created for Harry Potter and his friends; a place where witches and wizards engage in all sorts of magic, including games that involve the use of magical broomsticks and that engage players with extraordinary powers. When J. K. Rowling brought Harry Potter and his friends to life, she created a world in which the rules of logic no longer exist. Because children of all ages found themselves immersed in Rowling's magic world, she embellished that world with enough details to sustain the magic. The setting of this book therefore, as well as its companion book Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, is in the imagination.

Get ready to learn everything you need to know about the sport at the heart of Hogwarts! Quidditch Through the Ages is the essential companion to the Harry Potter series, a funny, fact-packed fantasy history of the seriously competitive wizarding sport. Bursting with glorious illustrations, magical memorabilia and two super-sized fold-outs, this spectacular new full-colour edition pairs J.K. Rowling's witty, inventive text with Emily Gravett's incredible artistic imagination. Devoured by Harry Potter in his first year, and consulted on a daily basis by the young witches and wizards at Hogwarts, Quidditch Through the Ages whisks readers on a whistle-stop tour through the game's hilarious (and often foul) history. There's magic and wonder in equal measure for both newcomers to the Wizarding World and established Harry Potter fans. Packed with trivia, tales of on-pitch antics, and Quidditch stars past and present - this is a great gift for the whole family. Quidditch Through the Ages is published in aid of Lumos, an international children's charity founded in 2005 by J.K. Rowling, and Comic Relief.
Fiction non-fiction at it's finest, Quidditch Through The Ages is a must for Harry Potter fans. The ultimate guide to the sport, this has absolutely everything you need to know about the game, and more. From the Evolution of the Flying Broomstick and Ancient Broom Games, to The Spread Of Quidditch Worldwide and Quidditch Today, you are guided through the history of the game, it rules, and difficult moves, and all stunningly illustrated throughout.
Emily Gravett has picked up on every tiny detail and brought it to life with her trademark wit and warmth, capturing the very essence of the game in such a way as you believe you could very well be holding a book from Hogwarts in your hands about a real sport. Posters, artefacts and tickets are all reproduced in exquisite detail along with illustrations and wood panels from bygone eras.
The annual-sized edition is perfect to read sprawled across the floor or with friends as you delve deep into the fictional world's greatest game. This is my personal favourite of all the Harry Potter illustrated editions, and when Rita Skeeter from the Daily Prophet declares, 'I've read worse' in the 'praise for' section, you know you are onto a winner! It would be a delightful addition to any school library!
