History[]
A copy of Lockhart's book
This book revealed how Lockhart supposedly gave a Yeti a headcold,[3] though Lockhart later revealed that he was merely taking credit for the achievements of other wizards.[2] It was also in this book Lockhart indicated that his favourite colour was lilac.[4]
Spella Weekly praised the book, writing, "Heart to Hart with the lovely Lockhart. Bewitching."[5] What Wand also gave it a favourable review, raving, "Lockhart sure can spell. Lock around the clock!"[5] Both quotes were featured on the back of the book's dust jacket.[5]
Year with the Yeti
When investigating a Muggle sighting of a magical creature at the Siren's Rest pub in Wales, Mathilda Grimblehawk and her partner came across a journal with a drawing of a Yeti on the front cover. Mathilda's scoffed "I hope this reads better than Lockhart's 'Year with the Yeti'…"[6]
