A MAGICAL WORLD

The Harry Potter series by author J.K.Rowling is the most successful book series in recent years.With millions
of readers all over the world, the Harry Potter stories are attracting the interest of both children and adults.
Everyone has loved Harry’s adventures, which are a mixture of fantasy and horror in a mysterious world of
witches or wizards. Any child reading a book who is living a normal, sometimes boring life can suddenly
become Harry Potter and experience a great adventure.
The first book in the serious, Harry Potter and Philosopher’s Stone which was brought out in 1997, was very
successful.The book was made into a film in 2001.

The author, Joanne Kathleen Rowling (J.K.Rowling) always wanted to be a writer. Her first book was called
Rabbit. She wrote it at the age of six and although it was not published, she continued to write.
She started writing about Harry Potter after she got the idea on a long train journey to London. By the time
she got off at the station Harry’s story had become a-seven book. Joanne than moved to Portugal for three
years to teach English, married a journalist and had a child.When her daughter was born, her first book was
one-quartes finished.

Back in Britain, in a tiny flat in Edinburgh she continued to write at the local cafe while her baby slept in her
pram. In June 1997, five years after Joanne’s idea on the train, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone was
published and got brilliant reviews.

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone is an enthralling start to Harry’s journey toward coming to terms
with his past and facing his future. It was the first book written by Rowling, and she was praised for creating
well-rounded characters and a fully realized wizard universe that coexisted with the present world. An almost
immediate critical and popular success, it was translated into some 60 languages. The six later novels about
Harry’s further adventures at Hogwarts were equally popular. The film Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone
(2001) was also a blockbuster.

The Harry Potter books made her one of the richest women in Britain, but Joanne still lives in Edinburgh and
is still writing Harry Potter stories in the local cafe.
