Since wizarding folk are going to Hogwarts for more than just adventures, remembering to pack those all-important magical school books is a must! Yes, unfortunately, lessons and homework are required (it is a school after all!), and those books are going to weigh trunks down a lot! Are you ready for the list? Here they are: The Standard Book of Spells (Grade 1) by Miranda Goshawk, A History of Magic by Bathilda Bagshot, Magical Theory by Adalbert Waffling, A Beginners’ Guide to Transfiguration by Emeric Switch, One Thousand Magical Herbs and Fungi by Phyllida Spore, Magical Drafts and Potions by Arsenius Jigger, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by Newt Scamander, and The Dark Forces: A Guide to Self-Protection by Quentin Trimble. It’s a good job first-years aren’t allowed a broomstick – there wouldn’t be room!
