Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (Equestrian Edition) by Newt Scamareder

Newt Scamareder was born in the year 985 C.R. His love of animals kept him out of the house often, much to the dismay of his mother, as he tended to attract dirt into the house. Upon graduating Celestia's school for Gifted Unicorns, he decided to become an Equizoologist, or someone who studies Equestrian Creatures. He traveled all over Equestria, The Crystal Empire, Yakyakistan, Griffonstone, and beyond, documenting every beast he could at the request of Princess Celestia, who asked him to write this book, now in it's 6th edition. He now lives in Ponyville, as the small town tends to attract a lot of beasts.
