Spell books, charms and transfiguration textbooks

This category gathers the practical side of a wizarding education — the books students open in charms and transfiguration lessons:

• Book of Spells by Miranda Goshawk — the standard book of spells of the first year: basic spells and counter-spells, wand movement diagrams and a warning chapter on the forbidden spells.
• Basic Charm Casting by Eulalie Hicks — the charms textbook for working with your wand, basic charms step by step, household charms and countercharms.
• Advanced Charm Casting by Eulalie Hicks — non-verbal casting, the Fidelius Charm, patronus charm theory and healing charms.
• Charm Casting Books: Basic & Advanced, Set of 2 — the complete charms course by one author.
• Spell Book Set: Book of Spells, Basic & Advanced Charm Casting — three spell books for the whole charms shelf.
• A Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration by Emeric Switch — the transfiguration book of the first year: the four branches, colour and state change, size, texture, animals and switching spells.
• Zauberkunst für Fortgeschrittene — Advanced Charm Casting with German text inside.
• Eine Anleitung in Transfiguration für Anfänger — the German edition of the transfiguration guide.

A spell book replica you can actually learn from

The Book of Spells is written as a practical manual. Every new incantation comes with a counter-spell, and each wand movement is drawn step by step in diagrams that are easy to follow even for a complete beginner. Familiar incantations such as Wingardium Leviosa, Lumos, Accio and Alohomora make the pages feel like the classroom from the story. The last part is a warning rather than a lesson: the forbidden spells, and why no student should ever try them.

From basic charms to the patronus charm

Eulalie Hicks, the charms professor of the American school of magic, wrote both charm casting books. Basic Charm Casting starts with the wand itself and goes through the basic charms one by one, then turns to the everyday magic of a witch's or wizard's home and how to reverse it when it gets out of hand. Advanced Charm Casting is longer and denser: non-verbal casting, the Fidelius Charm that hides a secret inside a single person, the theory of the patronus charm and, finally, healing charms.

A transfiguration textbook for beginners

A Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration answers the question every first-year asks — what transfiguration actually is — with the four branches of the subject, its limits and a short history. The practical chapters build up step by step: basic technique, colour change and state change, then size, texture and patterns, working with animals and, at the end, switching spells, where two things trade places.
