Beedle the Bard

Beedle the Bard (early fifteen century) is the author of a book of wizarding fairy tales, The Tales of Beedle the Bard. Beedle lived in Yorkshire, England. The only known image of Beedle is a woodcut that shows a bearded man.

His name probably refers to the medieval English historian Bede.

 * The Wizard and the Hopping Pot
 * The Fountain of Fair Fortune
 * The Warlock's Hairy Heart
 * Babbitty Rabbitty and her Cackling Stump
 * The Tale of the Three Brothers
 * Grumble the Grubby Goat

The Tale of the Three Borthers was the origin story of the Deathly Hallows.
