Anyone read Tales of Beadle the Bard?

From what I read about the book, this sounded like a spin-off of the Harry Potter series. With Harry Potter being as successful as it was, I don't know how this can be a successful book.

Has anyone read it and what did you think? Do you think Harry Potter fans would appreciate reading the book?

I bougth it when it came out a week or so ago, but I'm fairly sure the wife also bought it for me so I haven't opened it yet.

What the book is is a collection of 3 or 4 short stories that while having nothing to do with Harry Potter the series, do take place in the wizarding world.
It's the book that Dumbledore bequeathed to Hermione Granger in Deathly Hallows.

If you like Rowling's HP work, then you'll enjoy this book.

My wife really enjoyed this book.

I can't even stand the regular Harry Potter books. I stalled out in the first one and never tried to finish it. Love the film, love the story. Can't stand the writing.
