Yoto, the award-winning audio platform, has just launched the Hogwarts Library collection. This set includes three beloved wizarding world audiobooks, now available as Yoto cards, allowing young fans to immerse themselves in the magic of the wizarding world.
Following the success of Yoto’s release of all seven Harry Potter audiobooks last year, Yoto has teamed up with Pottermore Publishing once again to bring Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Quidditch Through the Ages, and The Tales of Beedle the Bard to the platform.
Available individually or as a complete set, these Yoto cards are a perfect addition to any young wizard’s or witch’s collection. Simply slot a Yoto card into a Yoto Player or Yoto Mini, download the stories, and dive into enchanting tales narrated by some familiar voices.

Jennie McCann, Pottermore Publishing’s Managing Director, commented in a press release on the delight in bringing these stories to a younger audience.
Yoto’s format offers young listeners the opportunity to build a deep connection with the wizarding world and truly immerse themselves in the magic of these stories.
Each of the three books in the Hogwarts Library collection offers a unique window into the magical world beyond Harry Potter’s main story. Both Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and Quidditch Through the Ages were originally written by J.K. Rowling and published in 2001 in aid of children’s charity Comic Relief. They were released in audiobook format in 2017 and 2018, respectively. The Tales of Beedle the Bard was written by Rowling and published in 2008 for her charity, Lumos, and was released in audiobook format in 2020.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, written by Magizoologist Newt Scamander, is the ultimate guide to the magical creatures of the wizarding world. Narrated by Eddie Redmayne, who plays Newt Scamander in the Fantastic Beasts films, this audiobook even features background sounds of some of these fantastic creatures, making it an extra-immersive experience.
Quidditch Through the Ages
Quidditch Through the Ages is the go-to book for everything about the wizarding world’s favorite sport. Narrated by Andrew Lincoln (Love Actually, The Walking Dead), it also includes over an hour and a half of bonus content.
The Tales of Beedle the Bard
Described as the wizarding world’s equivalent of Grimm’s Fairy Tales, The Tales of Beedle the Bard is a collection of magical stories passed down for generations, including “The Tale of the Three Brothers,” which plays a key role in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Narrated by an all-star cast, including Jude Law (Albus Dumbledore), Warwick Davis (Professor Flitwick), Noma Dumezweni (Hermione Granger in the original cast of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child), Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy), Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood), Sally Mortemore (Madam Prince), and Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley), this audiobook brings these classic stories to life like never before.
The Hogwarts Library collection Yoto cards are available for purchase now through the Yoto website for $14.99 individually or $39.99 for the whole set. Each card works with the third generation Yoto Player, Yoto Mini, and the free Yoto app, ensuring that young fans can experience the magic wherever they go.
