           The episode has been screened in fan viewings since, with a Rocky   
   Horror-esque participation level and enthusiasm. A must-see from the series,   
   your Buffy fan will surely be excited by this gift.   
      
   2. 20 YEARS OF SLAYING: THE WATCHER'S GUIDE   
           This is a hardcover, special anniversary edition of the Watcher's   
   guides, which were released starting during the original airing of the show.   
   It's a curated compilation, including favorite content from The Watcher's   
   Guides Volumes 1-3. This book acts as a "best-of" overall, rather than an   
   actual full collection of the original volumes.   
           As a bonus, exclusive interviews with the cast and crew are included   
   in this edition, conducted for the publication of this book in particular.   
   The pages are black and white and include photos and stills from the series.   
   This is a great addition to a bookshelf, especially next to a grimoire!   
      
   1. BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER: A PICTURE BOOK   
           In this picture book, aimed at younger readers, Buffy appears as a   
   young child, rather than her age as it was at the start of the TV series.   
   Young Buffy is friends with little versions of Willow and Xander, and is a   
   bit less brave than she grew up to be (though still doing a great job of   
   dealing with monsters and scary noises). The character of Giles also appears   
   as the school librarian for these little ones, doling out advice and   
   support.   
           Unlike the show, the art in this book is bright and cheery, much   
   more of a lighthearted, childlike approach to the Buffy-verse. A great gift   
   for a fan who is now a parent - something for them to read to their child   
   that is within their own fandom as well.
